Climatic changes over the Mediterranean basin in 2031–2060, when a 2° C global warming
is most likely to occur, are investigated with the HadCM3 global circulation model and their …

Energy consumption and outdoor ambient temperatures are inherently related. Low
temperatures increase consumption via space heating, whereas high temperatures result in …

Abstract Changes in the precipitation regime as a result of temperature changes are
important for water resources management and management of water-related natural …

The global energy system is highly vulnerable to climate variability and change. This results
in a vast range of impacts on the energy demand sector and production and supply …

Global warming has the potential to impact various aspects of human society such as
