Table 1. MASS BALANCE between 1991-1992 and 2000-
2001. Winter, summer and annual balance. ELA: equilibri-
urn line altitude. AAR: accumulation area ratio. ELA for
Langjökull is devided between its southern (★) and northern
dome (★★). - Afkoma Langjökuls og skriðjökla Vatnajök-
uls 1991—2001. Vetrar-, sumar- og ársafkoma. ELA: hœð
jafnvœgislínu. AAR: hlutfall safnsvœðis af heildarflatarmáli
jökulsins. Hæð jafnvœgislínu á syðra hveli (*) Langjökuls
er aðgreind frá nyrðra (**) hveli hans.
Figure 2. a. Specific mass balance of Vatnajökull from
1991-1992 to 2000-2001. The winter mass balance
(bw) is defined as the mass of snow accumulated dur-
ing the winter months, the summer balance (bs) is the
mass balance during the summer, and the net balance
(bn) is defined as their sum. The specific mass bal-
ance is expressed in terms (m) of the equivalent water
accumulation. b. Specific mass balance of Langjökull
1996-1997 - 2000-2001. - a. Ársafkoma Vatnajök-
uls frá 1991 til 2001. Vetrarafkoma (bw), sumaraf-
koma (bs) og ársafkoma (bn) í metrum vatns á ári. b.
Ársafkoma Langjökuls frá 1996 til 2001.
