and our intention is to run these models dur-
ing times of hazardous events and even on a daily
basis to further improve monitoring.
Avalanche monitoring has progressed. The em-
phasis is now on improving our services, especially
to the Icelandic Road and Coastal Administration
with regard to transport. The reason is that com-
munity structure has changed considerably in recent
years and the need

to a slight inaccuracy in the calculations. The figure on the right loosely shows the relationship between m/s and a few Beaufort-values.
The prerequisites of the calculations above are:
The equation: W = 0.836B3/2 where W is windspeed in m/s and B is value on the Beaufort-scale.
