the com-
plexity of the hydrological processes through modelling, but its application is usually limited to
the short-range. Although the results demonstrated a great potential for this method, its success-
ful application in real-time will strongly depend on the quality and availability of streamflow
observations, which can be poor or simply missing during periods of variable durations, e.g

will develop. However, four scenarios
are considered most likely:
o The migration of magma could stop, resulting in a gradual reduction in seismic
activity and no further eruptions.
o The dike could reach the Earth's surface north of Dyngjujökull causing another
eruption, possibly on a new fissure. Such an eruption could include lava flow
and (or) explosive activity.
o The intrusion reaches

Such landslides fall from a comparatively high
elevation, cause extensive disruption and upheaval of loose materials and soils in their
way, and can travel considerable distances uphill against opposing slopes.
Secondly, there are medium-sized or large, rapid debris flows that are released from com-
paratively high elevations and are confined to gullies as they travel down the mountain-
side, similar
