twice as much as the B1 scenario (-17% vs. -9%). In the remaining three panels of Fig.
2, the radiation responses are fairly modest.
To conclude, during the period of the main interest for the present study, 2020-2049, the
various greenhouse gas scenarios do not diverge much. The same conclusion was drawn

When that happens, water escapes to cause a
jökulhlaup in the river Skeidará, after having
traveled ~50 km beneath the Skeidarárjökull
outlet glacier (Figure 1b). Jökulhlaups occur
there every 1–10 years and last from days to
weeks, each time releasing 0.4–4 km3 of water

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
