York collaborated in installing a seismograph network throughout Iceland, including a network of five seismographs in the interior of the country. During the same period the number of stations in the IMO network increased markedly.
A new era of seismic monitoring began in Iceland in 1991, when a digital seismic system, the SIL system, was upgraded to fully automatic operation. It was designed

The work of the Hydropower-Hydrology group of CES is carried out by a network of scientists mainly from the national institutes. Thus a wide range of aspects of hydropower and natural conditions are covered, from the glaciated basins

detects signal characteristics similar to previously observed eruptions using a three-fold
detection procedure based on: 1) an amplitude threshold; 2) the signal-to-noise ratio; and 3) an
emergent ramp-like shape. Data from six Icelandic eruptions was used to assess and tune the
module, which can provide 10–15 minutes of warning for Hekla up to over two hours of
warning for some other

These calculations can then
be used as the basis for flood warnings and in the design of the built environment. A newly
published Icelandic study by Massad et al. (2020) reassessed precipitation return levels in
Iceland, resulting in a new national map of 24-hour precipitation thresholds for a 5-year event,
see Figure 1, in agreement with the general precipitation pattern in Iceland, shown in Figure 2/media/vedurstofan-utgafa-2022/VI_2022_006_extreme.pdf
