The ISC data distribution has evolved over many years from print only, through CDs, the first simple
flat file search on the web (1998), to the many and varied search tools currently available

A variety of data and/or information sources will be explored and new pathways to effective utilization across disciplines discussed. The sessions include:

and a decrease in the south
and much larger increases in summer temperatures in
southern Europe than in northern Europe [Christensen and
Christensen, 2007]. Also, more regional characteristics,
such as orography and distance to the coast, affect how
the large-scale changes in climate emerge locally. For
example, Andre´asson et al. [2004] found that the largest
increases in runoff occurred in the mountainous

a final report from each working group will be issued
in 2010.
A final Book will also appear in 2010 and the
proceedings from the final conference in 2010 will be
published.

derivatives of the geopotential height field. However,
regardless of how vorticity is determined, it always requires the calculation of horizontal gradi-
ents, and is therefore sensitive to variable grid-point spacing (Sinclair, 1997). A hybrid approach
was proposed by König, Sausen, and Sielmann (1993), where at their initial stages, cyclones are
identified as relative maxima of vorticity at 850 hPa

and early autumn the conditions will improve slightly, chiefly in southern Scandi-
navia. Nonetheless, the marked enhancement of insolation in central and southern
Europe may prove to be more important, affecting the competitive ability of the var-
ious parts of Europe on the solar energy market.

for improving
systemic management policies and practices by learning
from the outcomes of implemented management strategies
(Pahl-Wostl et al. 2007a). By re-evaluating goals, objec-
tives and means how to achieve them as new information
and insights become available, adaptive management is
more responsive to changing conditions of and demands on
ecosystems when compared to traditional approaches

on 24 October. At this meeting it was agreed that the Civil Protection's alert level should be increased to ‘uncertainty' stage. This is a precautionary step because it is unknown how close the HFF fault system is to failure. The possible stress changes on the HFF, due to the ongoing earthquake swarms, could bring it closer to failure or trigger a larger earthquake on the fault. The timing of any
