The results of this research project would enable a greater understanding of the relationship between ice sheet dynamics, ocean and atmosphere in Iceland. This knowledge can then contribute to a wider understanding on the controls of global sea level rise and gain insight to the dynamics and behaviour of larger ice sheets such as Greenland and Antarctica. It is ultimately hoped that this research will strengthen predictions of ice caps and ice sheets response to climate change. | The research objectives of this paper would be1. Assess the impact of seasonal variation on ice flow velocity2. Investigate the influence of calving on overall glacier dynamics3. Model future ice flow of Hofsjökull ice cap4. Validate model outcomes with existing data5. Estimate uncertainty in predictions of future ice loss due to uncertainty in parameters

这一研究项目的结果将使人们能够更好地了解冰岛冰盖动力学、海洋和大气之间的关系。这些知识有助于更广泛地了解全球海平面上升的控制，并洞察格陵兰和南极洲等较大冰盖的动态和行为。人们最终希望，这项研究将加强对冰盖和冰盖对气候变化的响应的预测。|本论文的研究目标为：评估季节变化对冰流速度的影响2。研究冰川崩解对整体冰川动力学的影响3。Hofsjökull冰帽未来冰流模型4。使用现有数据验证模型结果5。由于参数的不确定性，对未来冰川融化预测的不确定性进行估计
