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.

The steps can also be found in Table A2-1
(Appendix 2) and the corresponding substeps in the
author tables (Appendix 1: A1-1–A1-5). Here we
would like to point out that all five guides have quite
similar views on DA 2, DA 3, and DA 5 and four
guides on DA 4 and DA 10. The other steps are
either mentioned by only one (DA 7) or two guides
(DA 1, DA 6, DA 8, and DA 9). However, even

boundary condition from the driving GCM. The RCAO model-output is from a pan-arctic
run for the years 1960–2080 at approx. 50 km resolution. The first 20 years of the model run
must be considered as spin-up time for the ocean module. The RCAO run is experimental
since the model is in a development state and the output has not yet been evaluated over
