Some potential limitations of using the CMIP3 ensemble for probabilistic climate change
forecasting should be mentioned. First, current GCMs still have a relatively coarse horizontal
resolution. Within the CMIP3 ensemble, the grid spacing varies from 1.1 q latitude × 1.1 q
longitude to 4 q latitude × 5 q longitude (for the analysis presented here, all the model results

least thirty years was selected (Figure 1). Table 1 presents information on the characteristics of
each catchment. Rivers in Iceland are usually classified according to their source (Rist, 1990;
Jónsdóttir et al., 2008), namely direct runoff (D), groundwater fed (L), glacial rivers (J) and
whether they flow through lakes (S). The combination

amplified by the RCM (Kjellstöm and Lind, 2009). Kjellstöm and
Lind (2009) found that a systematic wet bias of 10–15% in precip-
itation of the ECHAM5 GCM was increased to 20–30% in the RCM

Mass balance modelThe mass balance model calculates the mass bal-
