Summer heat-waves, aridity in spring or heavy rain: the impacts of climate change affect agriculture as well as forestry, water management or for instance the electrical power supply. To enable decision makers in these sectors to develop effective action strategies, they need to know what to expect in their regions. Therefore the conference offers an overview of the results of regional climate impact research at PIK to players in politics, economy, administration or organizations.
Also, the new website www.klimafolgenonline.com offering compact information on climate projections and sectoral climate impacts for different target groups is introduced. It provides charts, graphs and tables and the possibility to compare different climate scenarios as well.
The number of participants is limited. More information on the conference programme and background as well as details for registration are available on www.klimafolgenkonferenz.de
