100 mm over 24 hours. Rising stream and river
levels are likely on the Snæfellsnes peninsula, around the Eyjafjallajökull and
Mýrdalsjökull ice-caps, and south of the Vatnajökull ice cap. Travellers are cautioned
against fording rivers in these regions.

The recognition of geophysical precursors
to volcanic activity is a primary challenge
in volcano monitoring. That challenge was
successfully met by scientists at the Icelandic
Meteorological Offi ce (IMO) before the
1 November 2004 eruption of Grímsvötn, a
subglacial volcano beneath the Vatnajökull
ice cap, Iceland (Figure 1).
Seismic and geodetic precursors were prop-
erly recognized

). This can be helpful with respect to
finding a common structure in presenting as well in session reporting (for which angles
mentioned in the opening session statements of the Workshop participants can provide
checkpoints).”

American Defense Map Agency (DMA) and the Icelandic Geodetic Survey, ii) airborne
EMISAR radar images obtained in 1998 by the Electromagnetic system (EMI) of the
Technical University of Denmark, and iii) two image pairs from the SPOT 5 high resolution

Additional remark from specialist in hydrology: The heaviest rainfall is expected around mountains and ice caps, where cumulative rainfall amounts will exceed 100 mm. Rising river levels are expected around the Eyjafjallajökull and Mýrdalsjökull ice caps
