systems. Moreover, it also presents, in a greater or lesser extent, economical effects in
nearly every sector of activity. In this context, the tourism will be particularly affected
[1; 2]. There will be regional and seasonal shifts in global tourist flows, leaving some
countries more vulnerable to shifting climatic conditions [3]. European Mediterranean

a systematic com-
parison of results to observed precipitation has been carried out. Un-
dercatchment of solid precipitation is dealt with by looking only at
days when precipitation is presumably liquid or by considering the
occurrence and non-occurrence of precipitation. Away from non-
resolved orography, the long term means (months, years) of observed
and simulated precipitation are often

The recognition of geophysical precursors
to volcanic activity is a primary challenge
in volcano monitoring. That challenge was
successfully met by scientists at the Icelandic
Meteorological Offi ce (IMO) before the
1 November 2004 eruption of Grímsvötn, a
subglacial volcano beneath the Vatnajökull
ice cap, Iceland (Figure 1).
Seismic and geodetic precursors were prop-
erly recognized

1. Introduction
New guidelines on water resources management emphasise
the importance of integrated approaches, cross-sectoral plan-
ning and of public participation (GWP, 2000; EC, 2003;
Jønch-Clausen, 2004). The commonly accepted approach inte-
grated water resources management (IWRM) is defined
