<strong>CLAVIER</strong> project<br />

<strong>CLAVIER</strong>: MAIN OBJECTIVES<br />

• Investigation of ongo<strong>in</strong>g and future climate changes and their<br />

associated uncerta<strong>in</strong>ties <strong>in</strong> Central and Eastern European Countries<br />

(<strong>CEE</strong>C)<br />

• Analyses of possible impact of climate changes <strong>in</strong> <strong>CEE</strong>C on<br />

weather patterns and extremes, air pollution, human health, natural<br />

ecosystems, forestry, agriculture, <strong>in</strong>frastructure and water resources.<br />

• Evaluation of the economic impacts of climate changes <strong>in</strong> <strong>CEE</strong>C<br />

economies concentrat<strong>in</strong>g on four economic sectors (agriculture,<br />

tourism, energy supply and public sector)<br />

WP1: CLIMATE CHANGE SIMULATIONS<br />

AND ASSESSMENT OF UNCERTAINTIES<br />

• Exist<strong>in</strong>g climate change scenarios for the region: results of the<br />

PRUDENCE (f<strong>in</strong>ished) and ENSEMBLES (ongo<strong>in</strong>g) projects (see<br />

the presentation of Susanne Pfeifer <strong>in</strong> the morn<strong>in</strong>g)<br />

• Validation and adjustment of regional climate models (REMO,<br />

LMDZ): : ERA40 simulations (25 km), 1961-2000<br />

(summer dry<strong>in</strong>g<br />

FINAL REMARKS<br />

<strong>CLAVIER</strong> project<br />

• The <strong>CLAVIER</strong> EU project plans not only to explore the<br />

climate change over Central and Eastern Europe, but<br />

also to give a first assessment of its impact (<strong>in</strong>clud<strong>in</strong>g<br />

economical vulnerability)<br />

• Primary vehicle of the project is thet<br />

close relationships<br />

with the “users”, stakeholders<br />

• Please don’t hesitate to contact us if we can provide<br />

valuable <strong>in</strong>formation for you!<br />
