future-proof.
On the positive side, climate change means greater utilisation of increased solar energy, wind energy,
temperature, and increased volumes of rainwater and groundwater.

precipitation can result in a river overtopping
its banks. In steep terrain, the same process could result in a torrent of overland flow, leading to

flooding in Iceland includes short-lived rainwater/media/vedurstofan-utgafa-2020/VI_2020_008.pdf
