3. CLAVIER goals Investigation of ongoing and future climate changes and their associated uncertainties in Central and Eastern European Countries (CEEC) until 2050 Analyses of possible impact of climate changes in CEEC on weather pattern and extremes, air pollution, human health, natural ecosystems, forestry, agriculture and infrastructure as well as water resources Evaluation of the economic impacts of climate changes on CEEC economies, concentrating on four economic sectors, which are agriculture, tourism, energy supply and the public sector

5. Observed changes in means and extremes

6. 2m temperature anomaly for 10 years with respect to the 40 year mean Average 2m temperature anomaly ( o C) of the period 1961–1970 compared to the period 1961–2000 Average 2m temperature anomaly ( o C) of the period 1971–1980 compared to the period 1961–2000 Average 2m temperature anomaly ( o C) of the period 1991–2000 compared to the period 1961–2000 Average 2m temperature anomaly ( o C) of the period 1981–1990 compared to the period 1961–2000 Annual Annual: negative anomaly for the large part of Europe for the first two decades, then increasing positive anomaly

7. 2m temperature anomaly for 10 years with respect to the 40 year mean Winter: the most significant changes, the highest for Iceland and Northern Europe Average 2m temperature anomaly ( o C) of the period 1961–1970 compared to the period 1961–2000 for winter Average 2m temperature anomaly ( o C) of the period 1971–1980 compared to the period 1961–2000 for winter Average 2m temperature anomaly ( o C) of the period 1991–2000 compared to the period 1961–2000 for winter Average 2m temperature anomaly ( o C) of the period 1981–1990 compared to the period 1961–2000 for winter Winter

8. 2m temperature anomaly for 10 years with respect to the 40 year mean Summer: similar, but not so drastic tendency Average 2m temperature anomaly ( o C) of the period 1961–1970 compared to the period 1961–2000 for summer Average 2m temperature anomaly ( o C) of the period 1971–1980 compared to the period 1961–2000 for summer Average 2m temperature anomaly ( o C) of the period 1991–2000 compared to the period 1961–2000 for summer Average 2m temperature anomaly ( o C) of the period 1981–1990 compared to the period 1961–2000 for summer Summer

9. Anomaly of daily mean temperature of the period 1991–2000 compared to the average calculated for the periods 1971–1980, 1991–2000 Annual Slight increase of the daily mean temperature for the last decade Anomaly of daily mean temperature

10. Anomaly of daily mean temperature of the period 1991–2000 compared to the average calculated for the periods 1971–1980, 1991–2000 for summer Summer The highest increase is in summer (up to 1.5°)

11. Daily maximum wind gust Frequency distribution of the daily maximum wind gust Periods: 1971–1980 and 1991–2000. Location: Budapest Budapest Increase of the heavy and stormy wind gust

12. Possible future changes until 2050 using IPCC scenario A1B and the modelling chain: (ECHAM5/MPI-OM driving REMO) More calculations and analyses will be done within the project

13. WinterSpring SummerAutumn ºC Temperature changes (A1B), 2050 (ECHAM5/MPI-OM driving REMO)
