Climate and tourism potential in Freiburg

摘要

In our study, the modelled data, based on the A 1 B and B1 scenarios, is carried out by the re-gional climate model REMO from the Max-Planck-Institute of Meteorology in Hamburg. Thedata has a high spatial and temporal resolution and are available from 1950 until 2100. In thatway, the periods 1961-1990 and 1971-2000 of the A1B scenario are used as the reference periodfor future climate change, respectively. Additionally data from the stations of the German Me-teorological Service (Deutscher Wetterdienst, DWD) for the period 1961-2000 has been used.The analysis based on the Al B simulation shows a strong increase in heat and thermal stress aswell as in humid-warm conditions. Cold stress, thermal acceptability, and ski potential areclearly reduced by the end of the 21' century. In general, the results of BI are lower comparedto AlB.
