water infra-
structure projects begun now are large
enough to push hydroclimate beyond the
range of historical behaviors (19). Some
regions have little infrastructure to buffer the
impacts of change.
Stationarity cannot be revived. Even with
aggressive mitigation, continued warming is
very likely, given the residence time of
atmospheric CO2 and the thermal inertia of
the Earth system (4, 20/media/loftslag/Milly_etal-2008-Stationarity-dead-Science.pdf

quired.
The real-time monitoring and interpretation of geophysical data
were made accessible to the public via the internet. Both automatic
and manually checked earthquake locations were displayed on
maps, updated every five minutes. Also, cGPS time series were
mapped showing deformation in the area.

on the costs of
weather related delays and interruptions. Leviäkangas (2007) mentions an amount of 20 ~ 30
million euro per year. As mentioned before over time road users will start to adapt if they realize
that certain delays occur too frequently. Responses could vary from shifts in departure time to
switching to another mode or even relocation of activities.
