[REPORT SUMMARY] A new classification scheme of major processes shaping the rain drop size distributions (RDSD)
A physically based classification of the raindrops size distribution (RDSD) in terms of rain intensity R, rain water content W and median volume drop diameter D0 is done with major processes shaping RDSD, by order of practical importance:
- Cloud microstructure:
-- Microphysi...

The altas provides an overview of locations of risky glaciers in Iceland. Risky glaciers in Iceland are mainly connected with glacier floods due to:
- Release of meltwater from subglacial lakes at geothermal areas,
- Sudden volcanic eruptions under the glaciers or
- Draina...
