the word „ice“ in its name. I welcome you all, in particular those who have
come from abroad. I hope you have a nice time here in Iceland. I hope you will
feel the warmth here – even though there is little or no volcanic activity

In earthquake engineering the estimation of the impact of subsoil characteristics on site effects, and
modeling the distribution of ground motion amplitudes are known as key elements in accurate seismic
hazard assessment programs. Recently, the deployment of Icelandic strong-motion arrays, ICEARRAY
I in the SISZ and ICEARRAY II in the TFZ, has
