the surge events. The glacier variation records are fur-
ther discussed and related to the climate of Iceland
during the observation period by Jóhannesson and
Sigurðsson (this volume).
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
Thanks are due to the numerous observers who
have carried out the glacier monitoring of the Ice-
landic Glaciological Society over a period of 65
years. Without their work and interest in the behavior
of glaciers, this data set of glacier variations in Ice-
land would not exist. Skúli Víkingsson made the loca-
tion maps and Tómas Jóhannesson edited the table of
glacier variations and made the graphs. He also sug-
gested many improvements in the manuscript.
