Scientists flying over the Bárðarbunga area yesterday reported no new changes in
the surface.
Air quality in urban areas in the East of Iceland:
o Forecasts indicate that high concentrations of sulphuric gases may be
expected in the northern part of the Eastern fjords, Fljótsdalur, Hérað,
Jökuldalur, and Vopnafjörður. Forecast indicates that concentration may
become highest in Hérað later

lighter westerly winds are expected and likely effected area will be from
Vopnafjörður bay, and south towards Djúpivogur.
Instructions:
o People who feel discomfort are advised to stay indoors, close their windows,
turn up the heat and turn off air conditioning. Use periods of good air quality

Simplest case: change in mean climate,
with no change in the magnitude of variability
If variability changes as well, the two tails of the distribution
(e.g., warm and cold) will be affected differently.

are located on the north and south coasts of the estuary. The average
annual nutrient input to the Fjord from freshwater is 1503 tons N and 37 tons P (average from 1985 to
2006). The two main streams and the waste water treatment plant for Horsens town, which is located
close to mouth of Bygholm stream, accounts for approximately 75% and 65% of the nitrogen and
phosphorous discharges, respectively
