There are other stakeholders who may need
to be involved in the design and then in the

There is a set of contextual factors that need
to be taken into consideration when designing
the participation plan. These can include
existing levels of conflict among stakeholders,
their previous experiences with participation,
relevant legal or regulatory settings

in a project sponsored by the U.S. Coast and Geodetic Survey. The aim of this project was to set up an international seismic network, and in 1964 a station was installed in Akureyri as part of the World Wide Standardized Seismograph Network.
From 1925 to 1964, IMO was the only institute in Iceland monitoring seismicity. In 1964, the Science Institute of the University of Iceland installed a seismograph

mainly research-driven activity in the water sector to one being adopted for widespread use by water managers.
By widespread adoption I mean that participatory modelling becomes mainstream in the sector and that managers
set up their own organizing teams, independent of researchers

not, they generally have considered natural
change and variability to be sufficiently
small to allow stationarity-based design.
In view of the magnitude and ubiquity of

century (Þórarinsson, 1939, 1974). In the beginning of the twentieth century there were
about ten years between outbursts but the floods diminished with time and became
more frequent. After a catastrophic, rapidly rising flood caused

Road transport has many stakeholders with different agendas. Climate change has large
variety of direct and indirect impacts on transport sector. It is a challenge to set up
design processes where uncertain and increasing information on climate change will be
used in decision-making and planning.

5 Conclusion and future research
Lack of data is the most difficult challenge that hydrologists and engineers face in the design
of hydraulic structures. The IFM offers a solution to this problem by pooling flood data from
different gauged sites belonging to a homogeneous region, in order to estimate flood quantiles at
ungauged locations or at gauged sites where streamflow series are very
