is unconnected with the
ongoing eruption.
Overall assessment: Magma flow-rate and plume height has remained at similar levels during
the last few days. Lava continues to flow northward. No signs of melting or meltwater discharge
towards the south. There is no indication that the eruption is about to end; however, it is an order
of magnitude smaller than in the first explosive phase.

It is imperative to strengthen the infrastructure in order to avoid loosing valuable data.
The monitoring of water and its usage must be improved in order to combat the decline which has occurred in recent years although the importance of the water resource has never been greater

as the starting point, the relevant themes of a 2009 stakeholder workshop
are examined. In order to deal with the long term (20 years) planning process – in the role of a policy
agency – a backcasting approach is used to develop scenarios (50 years).
The project is using scenarios to understand and structure the uncertainties related to the long term
planning process. Furthermore the development
