This portal illustrates the possible impacts of climate change on Germany for the sectors climate, agriculture, forest and biodiversity, water, energy, health and tourism. You can explore a wide range of indicators such as temperatures, crop yields or the risk of forest fires. Observations are available for 1961-2020 (German Weather Service) and simulations for 1971-2100 (regional climate scenarios; for the water sector the hydrological model SWIM). The chosen indicators are displayed as colour maps of Germany; zoom levels lead to the federal states and districts. The portal shows the climate scenarios RCP2.6 and RCP8.5, in the water sector SSP1-2.6, SSP3-7.0 and SSP5-8.5.
