Significant achievements as concerns short-term warnings, hazard assessments and understanding crustal processes related to earthquakes
New methods and algorithms have been developed and are applied - a basis for earthquake warnings
Changes of shear-wave splitting time to observe changes of stress
Short-term warnings based on continuous observation of the strike of horizontal compressions from fault plane solutions of microearthquakes
Slungawarning, an algorithm for alerting about time and site of impending earthquakes
SAG, spectral amplitude grouping, a method for monitoring general stress increase in an area
New observations and new understanding of earthquake related crustal processes, a basis for long-term as well as real-time interpretations
The build-up of continuous GPS measurements in Iceland and observations of active deformation preceding earthquakes
Seismic and interseismic deformation observed by interferometric analysis of Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) images
