no significant change, however a
rising trend towards the end of the
century is noted (red curve).

Windspeed conversions
The Icelandic Meteorological Office uses the SI (Systeme Internationale d´Unites) unit metres per second (m/s) in windspeed measurements. Here you can convert between different units of windspeed. Type a number into a textbox below and then click outside it. Please note that Beaufort-values are between 0 and 12.

Standard deviation of monthly mean Ta are in reasonable agreement to the observations except
for summer and autumn on the ice sheet where the model underestimates (Fig. 4c and d).
5.2 Global Radiation
Measurements of global radiation are only available from the stations Swiss Camp and Crawford
on the ice sheet for a limited time period (1995–2006), including a number of data gaps
