This document describes the numerical models and tools constituting the integrated system for the qualitative and quantitative assessment of the hydrogeological risks due to climate change developed in the framework of the GEMINA project (product P91). In particular the work package 6.2.17...

This document is aimed to show the main results of climate projections, under two RCPs, at 2100 obtained in WP A.2.6 “High-resolution climate scenarios” on the geo-hydrological hotspots identified within WP A.2.17 “Analysis of geo-hydrological risk related to climate change” of GEMINA...

The present study summarised the dataset available used for climate and hydrological studies in China. The main aim is to identify the possible sources of climate and hydrological datasets to be used to validate the hydrological outputs of a GCM/RCM climate model and/or of a coupled...

Climate and land cover are the main regulators of discharge formation. We combined here 5 alternative land cover case with 2 different precipitation scenarios. Land cover scenarios are: (a) present land cover according to CORINE 2006 maps, (b) ICES scenario at 2050, (c) IMAGE scenario at 2050,...

We analyse the observed climate-driven changes in summer wildfires and their future evolution in a typical Mediterranean environment (NE Spain). By analysing observed climate and fire data from 1970 to 2007, we estimate the response of fire number (NF) and burned area (BA) to climate trends,...

The aim of the report within GEMINA project is to present a methodology to probabilistically derive peak flood distribution from the statistical representation of extreme rainfall at the fixed durations of 1, 3, 6, 12, 24 hours over an area of interest. The methodology provides an analytical...

This paper analyzes the capabilities of the regional climate model COSMO-CLM to simulate the main features of the observed climate over the entire Italian domain. Two simulations on the period 1971-2000, driven by ERA40 Reanalysis and by the CMCC-MED global model respectively, have been...
