available
aerial photographs, from 1979 for Torfajo¨kull, 1980 for
Tindfjallajo¨kull and 1984 for Eyjafjallajo¨kull, all acquired
in late summer. We digitized the contour lines and
created regular 40 m40 m DEMs by interpolating the
contour lines, using a kriging method (e.g., Wise 2000).
The vertical error of those DEMs is cautiously estimated
to 10 m when interpolating over rough mountain areas

The event originates from the subglacial lake Grímsvötn. The event is expected to be small, with maximum discharge on the order of magnitude 1000 cubic meters per second. The maximum of the flood is expected to be around the end of the week.
Conductivity measurements indicate a considerable increase of geothermal contribution to the water of the river. Simultaneously, the ice on the subglacial lake

Lightning is monitored using the British Met. Office lightning detection system. Lighthing activity follows a similar pattern as the plume altitude with intermittent periods of strong lightning activity. During the most intense lightning period the number of lightnings per hour were 1000 times more than during the Eyjafjallajokull Eruption.

depths NNE of the edge of the icecap beneath a 1000 m wide and 5 km long graben, which formed and
subsided up to 8 m during the initial phase of the Holuhraun eruption. Furthermore, shallow LP events
are also observed in the subglacial part of the dyke trajectory, under three distinct

Future improvements should be made in the light of applications within a larger toolbox of scenario

The star denotes the source of the large earthquake that occurred south-west of Ingólfsfjall.
Significant earthquake activity has taken place west of the main fault; this is the location where a magnitude 5 earthquake occurred in November 1998, making it unlikely that a large earthquake will occur in this region

strong incentives to enter the EU community and thus the
EU acquis communautaire is used as key reference for the
development of its water management principles. It was

Earthquake swarms are
happening frequently in the vicinity of Grímsey. An earthquake swarm about
10-12 km North-East of Grímsey started on February 14. As of noon on February
16, over 1000 earthquakes have been detected, with 10 over magnitude 3. As of
