<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 />
