are tested: Method I (MI) that uses the same flow
law parameter, A, as in the two studies discussed above, im-
plicitly including basal sliding, and Method II (MII) that in-
cludes a Weertman type sliding law (Paterson, 1994) where
the sliding velocity is assumed to be proportional to a power
of the basal shear stress, τb, (Vslid =C · τmb ); C is the slid-
ing parameter and the exponent m= 3 in our

mover’s payoff, while mover 2’s
payoff is greater than or equal to the first mover’s payoff.
The payoff function is that of the basic public good game. The marginal return from the
public good is a ∈ [0,1], and each agent’s initial endowment is E. The payoff function Rik
of agent i as mover k, k = 1 for the first mover and k = 2 for the second mover, is defined
as follows:
Rik =E − xik + a (xik

and sustainable society. The main vision of the European Plate
Observing System (EPOS) is to address the three basic challenges in Earth Sciences: (i) unravelling the
Earth's deformational processes which are part of the Earth system evolution in time, (ii) understanding
the geo-hazards and their implications to society, and (iii) contributing to the safe and sustainable use
of geo-resources
