earthquakes or a single earthquake with a large enough magnitude are located within a specific
area, based on the warning levels, an audio alarm warning will be played in the monitoring
office. However, for detecting tremor there has only been a simple amplitude warning, and no
“smart” warning system that automatically detects and warns of volcanic tremor, using the
coherency of a signal

Despite these extensive observation systems the experienced service level of drivers may deviate
from that defined by the road authority. There may be all kinds of additional features (road side
objects, secondary weather aspects (e.g. daylight intensity), personal skills and expectations) that
affect the experienced service level of a driver. One way to assess experienced

Eyjafjallajökull, at approximately 5-7 km depth. The high velocity zones are elongated in the east-west direction, in
line with geological surface features and are separated by a zone of relatively lower velocity (3.0 km/s), where
earthquakes prior to and during the 2010 summit eruption were located. The high velocity zones most likely
correspond to intrusive bodies similar to those previously imaged
