than 30,000 earthquakes at 5–7 km depth, advancing in short bursts at 0.3–4.7 km/h. Following each
surge forward, the seismicity behind the dyke tip dropped, implying that the subsequent dyke opening
was mostly aseismic. More detailed analyses of the seismic data recorded by a dense network around
the Vatnajökull icecap have revealed small magnitude, long-period (LP or B-type) events which

on the costs of
weather related delays and interruptions. Leviäkangas (2007) mentions an amount of 20 ~ 30
million euro per year. As mentioned before over time road users will start to adapt if they realize
that certain delays occur too frequently. Responses could vary from shifts in departure time to
switching to another mode or even relocation of activities.
