provide scientists with an improved understanding of how the magma is moving within the crust.
Overall assessment
There are no measurements to suggest that an eruption is imminent. Previous intrusion events in
Iceland have lasted for several days or weeks, often not resulting in an eruption. However an
eruption of Bárðarbunga cannot

demand of road transport services directly, e.g. climate change may
alter the supply chains in forest and food industries. The competitive position of road transport
may change for better or worse, depending on how other modes respond to changing
circumstances and risks, on the regulatory and costs effects of explicit adaptation policy, on the
interaction with other policies (mitigation, clean

climate change adaptation should reflect the nature of the uncertainty sources and how they
interact with risk level and decision making: (i) epistemic uncertainties can be reduced by
gaining more knowledge; (ii) uncertainties related to ambiguity can be reduced by dialogue

Nobody should travel in steep slopes during winter time without knowing how to assess avalanche danger and make appropriate terrain selection. The safety can be increased considerable by avoiding all terrain steeper than 30°. Should

contact with high concentrations of gas; where they were, at what time it happened, how the gas cloud
looked (colour and thickness of the cloud) and how they were affected by it.
The volcanic eruption has now been going on for almost half a year. The lava
