AU - Buyung-Ali, Lisette AU - Knight, Teri M. AU - Pullin, Andrew S. T2 - Landscape and Urban Planning AB - ‘Urban greening’ has been proposed as one approach to mitigate the human health consequences of increased temperatures resulting from climate change. We used systematic review methodology to evaluate available evidence on whether greening interventions, such as tree planting or the creation of parks or green roofs, affect the air temperature of an urban area. Most studies investigated the air temperature within parks and beneath trees and are broadly supportive that green sites can be cooler than non-green sites. Meta-analysis was used to synthesize data on the cooling effect of parks and results show that, on average, a park was 0.94 °C cooler in the day. Studies on multiple parks suggest that larger parks and those with trees could be cooler during the day. However, evidence for the cooling effect of green space is mostly based on observational studies of small numbers of green sites. The impact of specific greening interventions on the wider urban area, and whether the effects are due to greening alone, has yet to be demonstrated. The current evidence base does not allow specific recommendations to be made on how best to incorporate greening into an urban area. Further empirical research is necessary in order to efficiently guide the design and planning of urban green space, and specifically to investigate the importance of the abundance, distribution and type of greening. Any urban greening programme implemented would need to be appropriately designed and monitored to continue to evaluate benefit to human health through reducing temperature.

AB - The quality of life of millions of people living in cities could be improved if the form of the city were to evolve in a manner appropriate to its climatic context. Climatically responsive urban design is vital to any notion of sustainability: it enables individual buildings to make use of renewable energy sources for passive heating and cooling, it enhances pedestrian comfort and activity in outdoor spaces, and it may even encourage city dwellers to moderate their dependence on private vehicles. Urban Microclimate bridges the gap between climatology research and applied urban design. It provides architects and urban design professionals with an understanding of how the structure of the built environment at all scales affects microclimatic conditions in the space between buildings, and analyzes the interaction between microclimate and each of the elements of the urban landscape. In the first two sections of the book, the extensive body of work on this subject by climatologists and geographers is presented in the language of architecture and planning professionals. The third section follows each step in the design process, and in part four a critical analysis of selected case study projects provides a demonstration of the complexity of applied urban design. Practitioners will find in this book a useful guide to consult, as they address these key environmental issues in their own work.

However, lately and especially in the framework of multi-risk analyses, earthquake risk studies are being increasingly implemented within an Alpine relation too. The presented study was conducted to quantitatively estimate potential consequences of earthquake events in the Austrian Province of Tyrol. The methodological study framework integrates the general risk components (i) hazard, (ii) elements at risk, and (iii) vulnerability. They are considered on a regional scale, accepting pragmatic approaches with simplified procedures and assumptions. Scenarios for different potential epicentres were calculated based on two different macroseismic hazard maps derived from punctual ground motion values of the building code and microzonation studies. The maps take into account the design event definitions of existing building code and a, thereupon based, simple and mono-causal Maximum Credible Earthquake assumption. Corresponding elements at risk and damage potentials were identified and potential losses were estimated under consideration of different vulnerability approaches. It can be shown that most scenarios based on the design event definition of the Austrian and European building codes, respectively have the potential of building and inventory losses solely of some hundred million up to approximately €4 billion. Additional, building and inventory losses of maximum credible events can lead to losses of more than €7 billion merely in connection with the primary earthquake event neglecting all other cascading effects.

The future development of skiing tourism is essential for Austria's rural and peripheral areas and their socio-cultural and economic wellbeing, and relevant for the entire Austrian economy. Though a number of factors driving tourism development can be found in the scientific literature, studies on the future of skiing tourism are largely restricted to the potential impacts of climate change. In this paper, potential impacts on the ski tourism industry in Austria caused by climate change and demographic changes were compared. Demographic changes were found to have a higher impact on skiing tourism than climate change in the first half of the twenty-first century, while climate change could be the more dominant driving force towards the end of the century. Demographic changes include population declines in source countries, and a trend to ageing populations. Other complicating factors include possible developments in snowmaking technology and also rising energy/transport costs resulting from climate change mitigation measures. Thus, the tourism industry is required to diversify its product portfolio and foster snow-linked and snow-independent tourism activities that are attractive for older age groups.

Vor allem die direkten Auswirkungen des Klimawandels mit höheren Durchschnittstemperaturen, häufigeren Extremereignissen wie starker Niederschläge, Stürme, Warmlufteinbrüche oder Trockenheiten erfordern Reaktionen der Skigebiete und Skidestinationen. Den Schwerpunkt der Anpassung bildet die technische Adaption, insbesondere die Beschneiung und der Anlagenausbau in die Höhe, um den alpinen Skisport als Status quo zu erhalten. Der analoge Winter 2006/07, der als bisher wärmster Winter der Aufzeichnungen gilt, zeigte jedoch die Grenzen der technischen Anpassung auf, sowohl aus ökonomischer, als auch aus ökologischer und sozialer Sicht. Für eine langfristig erfolgreiche, nachhaltige Anpassung an die globalen Veränderungen nicht nur klimatologischer Art ist der momentane Fokus auf die technische Adaption nicht ausreichend. Weitere Anpassungen auf Verhaltensebene sowie Vermeidungsstrategien sind notwendig und müssen vermehrt angewandt werden, wobei sich der Status quo des Skitourismus ändern wird. In einem kausal vernetzten Mensch-Umwelt System Skitourismus sind Verhaltens- und Vermeidungsstrategien nur durch die direkte Zusammenarbeit von Angebots- und Nachfrageseite, von Skidestinationen und Skitouristen, erfolgreich umzusetzen. Eine Anpassung des Status quo auf Angebotsseite verlangt demnach auch eine Anpassung der Nachfrage an sich verändernde Angebote. Erweiterte Formen der vernetzten Verhaltensanpassung und der Vermeidungsstrategien können mit Hilfe eines bewussteren, nachhaltigen Konsums zu neuen Chancen für den Skitourismus und den alpinen Tourismus im Ganzen führen, und dabei dessen Verletzbarkeit gegenüber globalem Wandel verringern. Im Forschungsprojekt SkiSustain werden die Wechselwirkungen zwischen globaler Veränderung, Konsumentennachfrage und Angebotsstrategien modelliert, um ein Vulnerabilitätsmodell zu entwickeln und Möglichkeiten der nachhaltigen Anpassung zu testen.

Um zu klären wie sich das regionale Klima in Österreich verändern wird, wurde mit dem Projekt „reclip:more“ (Research for Climate Protection: Model Run Evaluation) eine erste kleinräumige Datenbasis für Klimaschutz und Klimafolgenforschung für Österreich generiert. Klimaszenarien wurden mittels regionaler Klimamodelle (RCMs) für die Alpen als 10 × 10-Kilometer-Raster und mit anschließendem Downscaling für Österreich mit einer Zielauflösung 1 km entwickelt. Die RCMs wurden mit ERA-40 Reanalyse-Daten der Vergangenheit und Daten eines Zukunftsszenarios des globalen Klimamodells (GCM) ECHAM5 angetrieben, um retrospektive (1981 bis 1990) und künftige (2041 bis 2050) Klimadatensätze für die Alpen zu berechnen und Möglichkeiten und Unsicherheiten der Modelle und Downscaling-Methoden für die Alpen zu evaluieren. Die nun vorliegenden Datensätze und weitere, die im Folgeprojekt „reclip:century“ für alternative Treibhausgasszenarien bis 2100 berechnet werden, dienen dazu als Basis für Aussagen über ökologische und sozioökonomische Entwicklungen im Hinblick auf den Klimawandel.

AU - Ulbrich, Uwe T2 - Global and Planetary Change AB - The relationship between cyclones and extreme wind events over Europe under climate change conditions is analysed using global as well as regional climate model simulations. In this study, climate change simulations based on the Special Report on Emission Scenarios (SRES) A2 and B2 are used. Cyclone systems over the Northeast Atlantic and Europe are identified for the Hadley Centre global general circulation model HadCM3 using an objective algorithm based on the search of the maxima of the Laplacian of the mean sea-level pressure (MSLP). Cyclone tracks are recognized in a second step of the procedure. Extreme cyclone systems are defined via the exceedance of the 95th percentile of the Laplacian of MSLP for each system. Extreme wind events are defined similar by values above the 95th percentile of the daily maximum wind speed at the lowest model level and related to the core pressure of the nearest cyclone system. Although the overall number of modelled tracks is underestimated in the control period of the global model's simulation with present-day greenhouse gas forcing, compared to reanalysis data, realistic patterns of the track density over the investigation area are simulated. Changes occur in particular with respect to the A2 scenario for extreme cyclone systems, while for B2 the changes are less pronounced. Especially over western parts of Central Europe, the track density of extreme cyclones increases for A2, accompanied by a tendency towards more intense systems. With respect to the A2 scenario, a tendency towards more extreme wind events caused by deepening cyclones is identified for several regions of Western Europe such as Spain, France, United Kingdom or Germany. Additionally, the climate change signal in the regional climate model (RCM) HadRM3H is analysed. In accordance with the signal of the wind speed changes in the GCM simulation, the RCM reveals an increase of the 95th percentile of the daily maximum wind speed over extended parts of Western Europe related to the areas of increased track density of extreme cyclones under the A2 scenario. Changes with respect to the SRES B2 scenario are similar in their structure, but less pronounced in their amplitude.

Little is known however about how tourists may respond to these projected environmental changes. To explore this question in the context of Canada's Rocky Mountain national parks, a visitor survey was administered (n = 809) in two national parks: Banff and Waterton Lakes. The environmental change scenarios constructed for the early and mid-decades of the 21st century were found to have minimal influence on intention to visit. The environmental change scenario for the latter decades, under a high emission climate change scenario, was found to have a negative effect on intention to visit, as 36% of respondents indicated they would visit the parks less often and 25% not at all. Visitors most likely to be negatively affected by climate-induced environmental change were nature-based tourists from overseas, motivated by the opportunity to view mountain landscapes and wildlife. The hitherto largely overlooked conceptual and methodological challenges of understanding how tourists may respond to multidecadal environmental changes induced by global climate change in any tourism setting is also discussed.

This paper examines how climate change may influence park tourism in the Rocky Mountain region by focusing on both the direct and indirect impacts of climate change for visitation to Waterton Lakes National Park (WLNP) (Alberta, Canada). A statistical model of monthly visitation and climate was developed to examine the direct impact of climate change on visitation. The model projected that annual visitation would increase between 6% and 10% in the 2020s and between 10% and 36% in the 2050s. To explore how climate-induced environmental change could also indirectly affect visitation, a visitor survey was used ( N = 425 ). The environmental change scenarios for the 2020s and 2050s were found to have minimal influence on visitation, however the environmental change scenario for the 2080s (under the warmest climate change conditions) was found to have a negative effect on visitation, as 19% of respondents indicated they would not visit the park and 37% stated they would visit the park less often. The contrasting result of the two analyses for the longer-term impact of climate change was a key finding. The management implications of these findings and methodological challenges associate with climate change impact assessment for tourism are also discussed.

AU - Rebetez, M. T2 - Climatic Change AB - We quantified the impacts of hot summer air temperatures on tourism in the Swiss Alps by analysing the relationship between temperature and overnight stays in 40 Alpine resorts. Several temperature thresholds were tested to detect the relationship between them and summer tourism. Our results reveal significant correlations between the number of nights spent in mountain resorts and hot temperatures at lower elevations. The relationship between hot temperatures and overnight stays is more important in June and to a lesser extent in August than in July. This is probably because holidays and the peak of domestic tourist demand in summer usually take place between the beginning of July and mid-August so that long-term planned stays dominate more during these months compared to June. The alpine resorts nearest to cities are most affected by hot temperatures. This is probably because reactions to hot episodes take place on a short-term basis as heat waves remain relatively rare. Our results suggest that alpine tourist resorts could benefit from hotter temperatures at lower elevations under future climates. Tourists already react on a short-term basis to hot days and spend more nights in hotels in mountain resorts. If heat waves become more regular, it seems likely that tourists will choose to stay at alpine resorts more frequently and for longer periods.

Currently, an estimated 100 million tourists visit the Mediterranean region annually, largely because of its favourable climate. Experiments with climate change scenarios suggest likely changes, with the Mediterranean becoming too hot in summer, with northern Europe having a more attractive climate, and with the Mediterranean becoming a more pleasant destination in spring and autumn. These spatial and temporal changes in climatic attractiveness could have major impacts on the sustainability of tourism development. Preliminary results for the case study of the Balearic Islands suggest that changes are likely to be detrimental from an economic and social point of view, and neutral or favourable from a resource management and biodiversity perspective.

They are usually reported in a number of different ways: as equivalent costs of global or national economic product in a future period or for a future temperature; as a present value where all future costs are discounted back to a point in time; or as the incremental damage that can be attributed to a marginal increase in emissions, known as the social cost of carbon. This article outlines these aggregate economic measures and assesses the key assumptions and inputs in the estimates, and how these influence the aggregated results. Finally, it discusses the strengths and weaknesses of the estimates and their potential role and applicability for policy.

It is as much a challenge for poverty reduction, growth and development as it is a global environmental issue. It could undermine or reverse progress in reducing poverty and attaining the Millenium Development Goals, thereby unraveling many of the development gains of recent decades. It already threatens the livelihoods, health and well-being of millions of people worldwide, and of the poorest and most vulnerable groups in particular. And it has potentially far-reaching implications for international relations and for personal, national and regional security. While significant uncertainties still remain, tremendous strides have been made over recent years in improving scientific understanding of the human processes driving global climate change and the likely impacts on world ecosystems. What is much less well understood is how these dynamics in the physical environment will interact with those of socio-economic systems, what the consequences will be for society, and how best to address them. In order to focus attention on these previously neglected and poorly understood social dimensions of climate change, the World Bank convened an international workshop in March, 2008, with the participation of community activists, former heads of state, leaders of Indigenous Peoples, representatives of non-governmental organizations, international researchers, and staff of the World Bank and other international development agencies. This edited volume brings together revised versions of many of the papers presented during that workshop, as an initial step in taking stock of existing knowledge on the social dimensions of climate change. Several new papers were also commissioned for this volume.

III. Protease activity in leucocytes in relation to erythrocyte membranes AU - Heller, M AU - Edelstein, P AU - Mayer, M T2 - Biochimica et biophysica acta AB - Protease activity was detected in membranes of human bovine erythrocytes prepared by the conventional procedures which include washing and removal of the "buffy layer". The enzyme was extracted by 0.75 M KCNS or (NH4)2SO4 and was activated by 0.4 to 0.5 M of the same salts. Colored, particulate hide powder-azure, membrane fractions and soluble proteins such as hemoglobin, casein or albumin were susceptible to hydrolysis by the membraneous protease. Partial purification of the enzyme was accomplished through disc-gel electrophoresis on polyacrylamide in the presence of 0.25% positively charged detergents like cetyltrimethylammonium bromide. An alkaline protease (pH 7.4) with properties similar to those of the erythrocyte enzyme was found in leucocytes. The similarity between the properties of the leucocytic and erythrocytic proteases and the correlation of the activity in erythrocyte membranes with content of white cells in these preparations, suggest that enzymatic activities in the contaminating leucocytes are responsible for the activity of membraneous proteases in erythrocytes.

One, denoted FA, was non-specific, had a relatively high Km for phosphatidic acid and was insensitive to inhibition by diacylglycerol. The second fraction, FB, was specific for phosphatidates, had a low Km, and was inhibited, non-competitively, by diacylglycerol. FA exhibited a sigmoid substrate-activity curve. The isolated FB aggregated to particles of about 10(6) in the absence of salts and could be dissociated by the addition of monovalent cations at ionic strength 0.4-0.6 to about 2-10(5) daltons and thereby doubled its activity. Dissociation was time- and temperature-dependent. F- was inhibitory. Divalent ions were not required for the activity of FA or FB and inhibited at concentrations exceeding 1 mM.

AU - Dullinger, Stefan AU - Essl, Franz AU - Leitner, Michael AU - Smith, Matthew AU - Vogl, Gero T2 - Journal of Applied Ecology AB - * Ragweed Ambrosia artemisiifolia L. is rapidly spreading in Europe. Its pollen is highly allergenic, with 4–5% of Europeans being sensitized. There is an urgent need to curtail the further spread to minimize allergy costs. * We simulated the spread of ragweed in Austria and southern Germany (Bavaria) until 2050 with particular emphasis on expected climate change. Using different management scenarios and levels of management effort, we analysed the potential for reducing human allergy costs, that is, expenses caused by allergies from ragweed pollen, by curtailing the accelerating spread of ragweed. We accounted for three contrasting climate assumptions: no change in temperature and moderate (annual temperature increase of 0·025 °C) and more extreme (annual temperature increase of 0·04 °C) climate change. * We found that a carefully designed management plan consisting of survey and eradication can drastically reduce the spread of ragweed. Without management, mean allergy costs for the management period (2011–2050) amount to about 290, 335 and 365 million € annually under the three climate change assumptions. * Following an optimally allocated management strategy with an annual budget of 30 million € reduces mean allergy costs by 258, 295 and 325 million € per year. Thus, the management may yield substantial savings, in particular under more extreme warming, where total savings over 40 years amount to about 12 billion €. * Synthesis and applications. Our study illustrates that management of invasive alien species has an economic benefit beside natural conservation. We provide guidance for the future management using the example of ragweed in Austria and Bavaria and show that although the species has expanded its range and abundance substantially in recent years, a well-designed and ambitious management programme still may yield substantial benefits. This is true for current climatic conditions as well as for future climate change scenarios, albeit management costs increase with a warming climate. However, possible gains are increasing in parallel. Given the scale of impacts on human health, and the substantial gains accrued from management, our results suggest that it is wise to halt further spread of ragweed.

Poisson regression adapted for time-series data was used to estimate the percentage change in the number of cases associated with a 1 degree C increase in average temperature above an identified threshold value. We found, on average, a linear association between temperature and the number of reported cases of salmonellosis above a threshold of 6 degrees C. The relationships were very similar in The Netherlands, England and Wales, Switzerland, Spain and the Czech Republic. The greatest effect was apparent for temperature 1 week before the onset of illness. The strongest associations were observed in adults in the 15-64 years age group and infection with Salmonella Enteritidis (a serotype of Salmonella). Our findings indicate that higher temperatures around the time of consumption are important and reinforce the need for further education on food-handling behaviour.

We have described the potential environmental determinants of the seasonal pattern of infection with campylobacter in Europe, Canada, Australia and New Zealand. Specifically, we investigated the role of climate variability on laboratory-confirmed cases of campylobacter infection from 15 populations. Regression analysis was used to quantify the associations between timing of seasonal peaks in infection in space and time. The short-term association between weekly weather and cases was also investigated using Poisson regression adapted for time series data. All countries in our study showed a distinct seasonality in campylobacter transmission, with many, but not all, populations showing a peak in spring. Countries with milder winters have peaks of infection earlier in the year. The timing of the peak of infection is weakly associated with high temperatures 3 months previously. Weekly variation in campylobacter infection in one region of the UK appeared to be little affected by short-term changes in weather patterns. The geographical variation in the timing of the seasonal peak suggests that climate may be a contributing factor to campylobacter transmission. The main driver of seasonality of campylobacter remains elusive and underscores the need to identify the major serotypes and routes of transmission for this disease.

Einzelne Arten dringen nordwärts in extramediterrane Gebiete (Westeuropa, Osteuropa) vor, in Mitteleuropa nördlich der Alpen wurde das Vorkommen von Sandmücken jedoch bis vor kurzer Zeit ausgeschlossen. Seit 1999 allerdings wurden Phlebotominae u.a. in einigen Teilen Deutschlands und Belgiens gefunden; diese Nachweise wurden ursprünglich mit Klimawandel und globaler Erwärmung in kausalen Zusammenhang gebracht. Inzwischen muss man aber annehmen, dass Sandmücken lange Zeit, vermutlich seit den holozänen Optima (ca. 4500 und 2500 v. Chr.) als Ein-(Rück-)Wanderer aus mediterranen Refugien in Mitteleuropa sporadisch vorkommen und bisher einfach übersehen worden sind. Dass aber eine Klimaerwärmung zur weiteren Ausbreitung in Mitteleuropa führen wird, steht außer Zweifel. Klimatologische Analysen der bisher bekannten Fundorte haben ergeben, dass die Temperatur den Schlüsselfaktor darstellt. Vergleiche mit den Klimaverhältnissen in Österreich (von wo bisher keine sicheren Funde von Phlebotominae vorliegen) haben ergeben, dass bereits eine Temperaturerhöhung um 1°C im Vergleich zum Zeitraum 1971–2000 in vielen Gebieten zu Bedingungen führen würde, die für ein Vorkommen von Sandmücken geeignet sind. (Die Szenarien für eine Klimaerwärmung schwanken zwischen 1,5°C bis 4,5°C zum Ende des Jahrhunderts; 3°C erscheint auch kritischen Autoren als realistische Größe.) Eine Erhöhung der Winter-(Januar-Durchschnitts-)Temperaturen könnte im Westen Österreichs zur Etablierung von Ph. mascittii führen, eine Erhöhung der Sommertemperatur würde besonders im Osten und Südosten zu für Ph. neglectus geeigneten Bedingungen führen. Leishmanien kommen ursprünglich in Mitteleuropa sicher nicht vor, doch sind in den letzten Jahren zunehmend autochthone Infektionen bei Menschen und Tieren festgestellt worden. Mit großer Wahrscheinlichkeit sind diese Infektionen auf autochthon vorkommende Sandmücken zurückzuführen, die sich an Hunden infiziert haben. Mit Leishmanien infizierte Hunde werden von mitleidvollen Mitteleuropäern immer wieder – meist illegal – von Südeuropa mitgebracht, und es hat sich sogar ein florierender Markt entwickelt, in dem solche erkrankten Hunde aus dem Mittelmeerraum per Internet von geschäftstüchtigen Personen angeboten werden. Angesichts der Gefährlichkeit der viszeralen Leishmaniose (besonders für Kleinkinder und Immunsupprimierte) muss dieser Situation große Beachtung geschenkt werden. Phleboviren sind bisher in Mitteleuropa nicht festgestellt worden, könnten sich aber bei Klimaerwärmung und bei Einschleppung möglicherweise etablieren, insbesondere, wenn es sich um Stämme handelt, bei denen außer dem Menschen andere Vertebraten als Reservoir fungieren können.

T2 - Veterinary Microbiology AB - An update on the mosquito-borne flavivirus species including certain subtypes, as listed in the Eighth Report of the International Committee on Taxonomy of Viruses, is given. Special emphasis is placed on viruses which have been shown to cause diseases in animals, and viruses for which no pathogenicity has been proven yet. Several recent examples (Usutu virus and lineage-2 West Nile virus in central Europe, Zika virus in Micronesia) have shown that sources providing information on such scientifically largely neglected viruses are valuable tools for scientists and public health officials having to deal with such disease emergences. Furthermore the effects of global warming will lead to introduction of competent mosquito vectors into temperate climate zones and will increase efficiency of viral replication in less competent vector species. This, facilitated by rising global travel and trade activities, will facilitate introduction and permanent establishment of mosquito-borne viruses, some of which may become of public health or veterinary concern, into novel environments, e.g. industrialized countries worldwide.

T2 - Bundesgesundheitsblatt - Gesundheitsforschung - Gesundheitsschutz AB - Ein Temperaturanstieg, aber auch andere klimatische Faktoren und die Zunahme von extremen Wetterereignissen werden Auswirkungen auf die menschliche Gesundheit haben. Neben den unmittelbaren Folgen von Extremereignissen (etwa Hitzetote) sind langfristig auch die indirekten Folgeerscheinungen von großer Bedeutung. Neben einer wahrscheinlichen Zunahme von Allergien und einer Verschlimmerung bereits bestehender Herz-Kreislauf-Erkrankungen sowie Atemwegserkrankungen stehen die Infektionskrankheiten im Blickpunkt. Dies betrifft in Deutschland endemische Infektionserreger, beispielsweise Hantaviren mit ihrem Reservoir in Nagetieren, oder durch Zecken übertragene Borrelia-burgdorferi-Spezies und FSME-Viren, aber auch durch Lebensmittel und Wasser übertragene Erreger. Milde Winter in Verbindung mit einem klimabedingten reichhaltigeren Nahrungsangebot können zu wachsenden Nagetierpopulationen und nachfolgenden Hantavirus-Epidemien führen. Statistische Analysen zeigen einen deutlichen Zusammenhang zwischen Temperatur und der Häufigkeit Lebensmittel-übertragener Zoonoseerreger (zum Beispiel Campylobacter). Ein Leptospiroseausbruch bei Erdbeerpflückern in Deutschland wurde durch vorausgehende Starkregenfälle begünstigt. Eine besondere Gefahr geht von Erregern aus, die bisher in Deutschland nicht heimisch sind, aber durch erkrankte Menschen, Vektoren und Reservoirtiere verstärkt eingeschleppt werden können. Bei fortschreitender Erwärmung finden sowohl die Vektoren als auch einige Erreger bessere Bedingungen für die autochthone Ausbreitung. Hier sind vor allem die durch Stechmücken übertragenen Krankheiten wie Chikungunya-, West-Nile-, Dengue-Fieber, Malaria und Leishmaniose zu nennen. Unter den derzeitigen klimatischen Verhältnissen sind in Deutschland für die meisten dieser Erreger noch keine autochthonen Erkrankungsfälle zu erwarten. Aufgrund des erwarteten Temperaturanstiegs und verbesserter Brutbedingungen für die Vektoren müssen wir jedoch auch in Deutschland in Zukunft mit Ausbrüchen durch einige dieser Erreger rechnen. Verstärkte Forschungs- und Public-Health-Aktivitäten im Bereich Klimawandel und Infektionskrankheiten sind erforderlich.

AU - Hlava, A. AU - Sprinzl, G. AU - Leitner, Barbara AB - Im heißen Sommer 2003 kam es in weiten Teilen West- und Südeuropas zu einer erhöhten Sterblichkeit. Die Auswirkung dieser Wetterphase auf eine Bevölkerung im alpinen Raum bzw. in Ost-Mitteleuropa wurde bisher noch nicht ausreichend untersucht. In Hinblick darauf, dass ähnliche Sommertemperaturen voraussichtlich häufiger werden (starker Anstieg der Tropentage in Zukunftsszenarien), wird eine Analyse der zu erwartenden Änderungen der Mortalität für Wien durchgeführt. Als für Mitteleuropa meteorologisch relevante Definition der Hitzetage wird die nach Kysely verwendet. Mittels Zeitreihenanalysen werden die Einflüsse relevanter meteorologischer Parameter an mehreren Wiener Stationen auf die tägliche Sterblichkeit der Wiener Bevölkerung von 1990 bis 2004 untersucht. Die Aufnahme der Luftschadstoffe (insbesondere hohe Ozon-Konzentrationen für die heißen Tage) ins Modell änderte nicht den Risikoschätzer für „Kysely-Tage“. An diesen ist die Gesamtsterblichkeit um etwa 10% erhöht (7,8 bis 15,8% je nach verwendetem Modell). Diese Zunahme ist in der gleichen Größenordnung wie die an epidemischen Grippetagen. Zur Ableitung der täglichen Maximaltemperatur aus den Feldern globaler Klimamodelle wird der im Projekt Startclim 2004-B entwickelte Ansatz des Synoptischen Downscalings verwendet. Als Prädiktorgröße wird einzig die Temperatur in 850 hPa verwendet, da dieser Parameter bereits 90 Prozent der Varianz des Regressionsmodells erklärt. Basierend auf den Klimaprojektionen des ECHAM5 Modells werden für drei unterschiedliche Emissionsszenarien und für drei verschiedene Zeitscheiben Temperaturszenarien abgeleitet. Anschließend werden für je dreißig Jahre sowohl die Hitzetage pro Jahr, als auch die Anzahl an Tagen innerhalb von Hitzeperioden pro Jahr berechnet. Es zeigt sich, dass derzeit im Mittel etwa 12 Hitzetage pro Jahr auftreten und diese Anzahl bereits in den Jahren 2011-2040 im Mittel auf 18 Tage ansteigt. Bis zum Ende des Jahrhunderts sind je nach Szenario 26 bis 38 Hitzetage pro Jahr zu erwarten. In der Innenstadt liegen diese Werte noch höher. Alle Modelle und alle Klimaszenarien lassen somit einen Anstieg der hitzebedingten Sterblichkeit erwarten. Die Schätzungen stehen mit den Beobachtungen zur Hitzewelle im Jahr 2003 im Einklang. Damals war eine Übersterblichkeit von etwa 5 Todesfällen pro Tag im Vergleich zum Vorjahr in Wien zu beobachten.

Zu Auswirkungen von Hitzewellen auf die Sterblichkeit in Österreich gab es bisher noch keine Untersuchungen. METHODE: Daten zur täglichen Mortalität in Wien im Zeitraum von 1998 bis 2004 wurden von Statistik Austria, meteorologische Daten von der Zentralanstalt für Meteorologie und Geodynamik zur Verfügung gestellt. Zur Definition von Hitzewellen wurden die Kysely-Kriterien herangezogen. Die tägliche Sterblichkeit von Mai bis September wurde mittels "Generalized Additive Model" (Poisson-Regression und log link) unter Berücksichtigung von "Over-Dispersion" analysiert. Der jahreszeitliche Trend wurde über Splines, Wochentage mittels Dummies modelliert. Hitzetage wurden als dichotome Prädiktoren inkludiert. ERGEBNISSE: In den letzten 35 Jahren stieg die durchschnittliche Temperatur (Mai bis September) in Wien um über 1,7 °C. Im Jahr 2003 zeigte sich eine Zunahme der Hitzetage auf insgesamt 44, die mit einer erhöhten Anzahl von Todesfällen einhergingen. Von diesen rund 180 Todesfällen war der Großteil nicht einem "Harvesting-Effekt" zuzurechnen. Es fand sich im Zeitraum 1998 bis 2004 an den Hitzetagen ein signifikant erhöhtes relatives Mortalitätsrisiko von 1,13 [95% Konfidenzintervall 1,09–1,17]. Diese Risikoerhöhung war bei Frauen deutlicher als bei Männern ausgeprägt. Obwohl die Sterblichkeitszunahme in allen Altersgruppen beobachtet werden konnte, waren die Ergebnisse nur bei älteren Personen (> 65 Jahre) signifikant. DISKUSSION: Auch wenn die Folgen der Hitzewellen nicht so ausgeprägt waren wie in Frankreich und Südwesteuropa, war in Wien im Sommer 2003 die tägliche Sterblichkeit erhöht. Zumindest 130 Todesfälle hätten in diesem Jahr durch prompte medizinische Hilfe und rechtzeitige Aufklärung der Risikogruppen zum Verhalten bei extremer Hitze verhindert werden können. Die Häufigkeit extremer Hitze-Episoden wird voraussichtlich als Folge der globalen Erwärmung zunehmen. Speziell auf die ältere Bevölkerung ausgerichtete Vorsorgeprogramme sind daher erforderlich.

Summer mortality was analyzed for the reference period 1998-2002 and for 2003. More than 70,000 additional deaths occurred in Europe during the summer 2003. Major distortions occurred in the age distribution of the deaths, but no harvesting effect was observed in the months following August 2003. Global warming constitutes a new health threat in an aged Europe that may be difficult to detect at the country level, depending on its size. Centralizing the count of daily deaths on an operational geographical scale constitutes a priority for Public Health in Europe.

The flood events in 2002 and the heat wave of August 2003 in Europe had given evidence in a rather drastic way of our vulnerability and our non preparedness. The project has produced very important results that show that the concurrent work of different disciplines in addressing public health issues can produce innovative and useful results, providing an approach that can be followed on other public health issues. The project has shown that information on potential threats can be extremely useful in preparing the public for adverse events as well as facilitating the response when the events occur. This is a new dimension for public health which reverses the traditional thinking: from identifying and reducing specific risk factors, to taking action on the basis of prediction and early warning to prevent health consequences in large populations.

AU - Jendritzky, G. T2 - Climate Research AB - ABSTRACT: The objective of this study is to investigate the climate sensitivity of health in a moderate climate of SW Germany. Daily mortality rates for the 30 yr period 1968-1997 for Baden-Württemberg (SW Germany) have been investigated with regard to the possible impacts of the thermal environment. A complete heat budget model of the human being (Klima-Michel model with outcome Œperceived temperature¹) has been used to assess the atmospheric conditions of heat exchange. Mortality data show a marked seasonal pattern with a minimum in summer and a maximum in winter. During the seasonal minimum in summer, death rates rise sharply with increasing heat load, reaching highest values during pronounced heat waves. Under comfortable conditions, mortality data show the lowest rates. Increasing cold stress also causes death rates to rise. In addition, thermal changes on a time scale of 1 wk have been considered in comparison to short-term exposures. In all seasons changes towards Œwarmer¹ conditions in terms of perceived temperature result in adverse effects, while changes to Œcolder¹ conditions provide relief. This is unexpected for the winter. The daily correlation coefficients between the deviations of perceived temperature and the deviations of mortality rate from the smoothed values (Gaussian filter, 101 d) show a pronounced seasonal pattern with significant differences from zero between March and August. From the end of June to the beginning of July, about 25% of the variance in the deviations of mortality rate from the smoothed values can be explained by the effects of the thermal environment. The winter values show only non-significant correlations, strong day-to-day variability, but marked time lags of 8 d and more, while in summer there is practically no difference in the results between the zero and 1 d lags. Cold spells lead to excess mortality to a relatively small degree, which lasts for weeks. The mortality increase during heat waves is more pronounced, but is followed by lower than average values in subsequent weeks.

However, there is a clear need for further detail in the regional and sectoral dimensions of impact assessments to design and prioritize adaptation strategies. New developments in regional climate modeling and physical-impact modeling in Europe allow a better exploration of those dimensions. This article quantifies the potential consequences of climate change in Europe in four market impact categories (agriculture, river floods, coastal areas, and tourism) and one nonmarket impact (human health). The methodology integrates a set of coherent, high-resolution climate change projections and physical models into an economic modeling framework. We find that if the climate of the 2080s were to occur today, the annual loss in household welfare in the European Union (EU) resulting from the four market impacts would range between 0.2–1%. If the welfare loss is assumed to be constant over time, climate change may halve the EU's annual welfare growth. Scenarios with warmer temperatures and a higher rise in sea level result in more severe economic damage. However, the results show that there are large variations across European regions. Southern Europe, the British Isles, and Central Europe North appear most sensitive to climate change. Northern Europe, on the other hand, is the only region with net economic benefits, driven mainly by the positive effects on agriculture. Coastal systems, agriculture, and river flooding are the most important of the four market impacts assessed.

T2 - Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences AB - Climate change poses threats to human health, safety, and survival via weather extremes and climatic impacts on food yields, fresh water, infectious diseases, conflict, and displacement. Paradoxically, these risks to health are neither widely nor fully recognized. Historical experiences of diverse societies experiencing climatic changes, spanning multicentury to single-year duration, provide insights into population health vulnerability—even though most climatic changes were considerably less than those anticipated this century and beyond. Historical experience indicates the following. (i) Long-term climate changes have often destabilized civilizations, typically via food shortages, consequent hunger, disease, and unrest. (ii) Medium-term climatic adversity has frequently caused similar health, social, and sometimes political consequences. (iii) Infectious disease epidemics have often occurred in association with briefer episodes of temperature shifts, food shortages, impoverishment, and social disruption. (iv) Societies have often learnt to cope (despite hardship for some groups) with recurring shorter-term (decadal to multiyear) regional climatic cycles (e.g., El Niño Southern Oscillation)—except when extreme phases occur. (v) The drought–famine–starvation nexus has been the main, recurring, serious threat to health. Warming this century is not only likely to greatly exceed the Holocene's natural multidecadal temperature fluctuations but to occur faster. Along with greater climatic variability, models project an increased geographic range and severity of droughts. Modern societies, although larger, better resourced, and more interconnected than past societies, are less flexible, more infrastructure-dependent, densely populated, and hence are vulnerable. Adverse historical climate-related health experiences underscore the case for abating human-induced climate change.

Climate change may affect health through a range of pathways, for example as a result of increased frequency and intensity of heat waves, reduction in cold related deaths, increased floods and droughts, changes in the distribution of vector-borne diseases and effects on the risk of disasters and malnutrition. The overall balance of effects on health is likely to be negative and populations in low-income countries are likely to be particularly vulnerable to the adverse effects. The experience of the 2003 heat wave in Europe shows that high-income countries may also be adversely affected. Adaptation to climate change requires public health strategies and improved surveillance. Mitigation of climate change by reducing the use of fossil fuels and increasing a number of uses of the renewable energy technologies should improve health in the near-term by reducing exposure to air pollution.

The analysis covered the period 1982-2000 when several extraordinarily hot summers occurred in central Europe. Daily total all-cause mortality and mortality due to cardiovascular diseases (CVD) in the entire population of the Czech Republic (approximately 10 million inhabitants) were examined. The daily death counts were standardized to account for the long-term decline in mortality and the seasonal and weekly cycles. Heat-related mortality is better expressed if 1-day lag after temperature is considered compared to the unlagged relationship. With the 1-day lag, both excess total mortality and excess CVD mortality were positive during all 17 heat waves, and in 14 (12) heat waves the increase in total (CVD) mortality was statistically significant ( P=0.05). The mean relative rise in total mortality during heat waves was 13%. The response was greater in females than males and similar regardless of whether total or CVD mortality was used. The largest relative increases, exceeding 20% in both total and CVD mortality, were associated with heat waves which occurred in early summer (the first half of July 1984 and June 1994). The mortality displacement effect played an important role since mortality tended to be lower than expected after hot periods. The mean net mortality change due to heat waves was estimated to be about a 1% increase in the number of deaths. The large relative increases during some heat waves were particularly noteworthy since the study (in contrast to most analyses of the heat stress/mortality relationship) was not restricted to an urban area and/or an elderly population.

The study was performed on the Lech basin (∼1000 km2), located in the Northern Limestone Alps. Two General Circulation Models (GCMs) with multiple ensemble integrations were used as a basis for assessing uncertainty in the climate projections. A downscaling method which attempts to counteract variance reduction, called Expanded Downscaling (XDS), was applied to statistically downscale large-scale atmospheric data to local stations. The resulting data was in turn used as forcing for the hydrological model HQsim in order to simulate runoff for present (1971–2000) and future (2071–2100) climate conditions. The results show that both the single models as well as the modelling chain performed well in reproducing the overall statistics and also single events for present climate conditions. Thus, the modelling chain seems to be a valid tool to assess hydrological extremes on local scales. The future scenarios indicate a decrease in the intensity of mean annual floods and considerable shifts in seasonal floods, including a decrease of summer floods and significant increases of winter floods. Floods with return periods up to around 10 years are projected to decrease in future, whereas no clear signals were obtained for floods with higher return periods as these projections are highly uncertain. An analysis of the timing of annual maximum floods indicates a substantial extension of the potential flood period from around 7 months under current climate conditions up to the whole year in future scenarios.

T2 - Naturschutz und Landschaftsplanung AB - Adaptation research related to winter sports has so far mainly concentrated on downhill skiing, whereas cross-country skiing has remained rather unnoticed. The results of the present study show that the perceptions of climate change are similar for both sport activities, but the consequences taken are different. The results reveal a strong preference of the cross-country skiers for natural winter landscape experiences. This is also reflected in the preferred adaptation strategies of the study. Cross-country skiers, particularly tourists, accept artificial snowmaking but rather dislike ski tunnels, provisions for indoor skiing or moves into other skiing regions. If the conditions for cross-country skiing in the Alps are inadequate most cross-country skiers would abstain from skiing in that particular year. As the study reveals, cross-country skiers are increasingly prepared to pay fees for favourable conditions and services. Regarding the booking behaviour there is a trend to late bookings and short breaks. These trends are even enforced if the snow conditions are unreliable. Whilst downhill skiing is supposed to show growing profits in snow-reliable regions and the local economy of the others will probably suffer, cross-country skiing is not expected to show such tendencies. The decline of this valuable winter sport activity will in fact lead to a loss of value added in Austria.

In this paper the potential impacts of climate change on ski areas in Tyrol (Austria, Italy) are investigated. A ski season and snowmaking simulation model ‘SkiSim2’ was applied to 111 ski areas. Model results suggest that all ski areas could ensure a 100-days season until the 2030s to the 2040s (high/low emission scenario) assuming a 100% snowmaking coverage and state-of-the-art snowmaking system. The Christmas holidays are a particularly sensitive season period, where already in the 2020s some ski areas do not fulfil economic thresholds. A warming greater than 3°C would force most ski areas to close their business not considering developments in snowmaking technology and economic thresholds of snowmaking costs. Regarding the snow demand to ensure a 100-days season independent of any technological limits, snow production would have to be multiplied by up to a factor of 4. It is questionable whether all ski areas will be able to afford the increasing snowmaking costs and therefore the most vulnerable regions should rethink their touristic positioning.

Using the dynamic heterogeneous panel data technique of Pesaran, Shin, and Smith (1999), we found a long-run relationship between the number of overnight stays, amount of snow depth, weighted real GDP per capita of the major countries of visitor origin, and price index of accommodation services. The long-run elasticity of overnight stays with respect to snow depth was 0.10. However, for high-elevation resorts the evolution of the number of overnight stays was independent of variations in snow depth. Furthermore, the long-run elasticity of the number of overnight stays with respect to weighted real GDP per capita of the country's visitors was much greater for high-elevation resorts than for low-elevation resorts. Finally, early Easter holidays were significantly and positively related to winter tourism demand.

Because they are home to major infrastructure and highly concentrated populations, cities are also vulnerable to the impacts of climate change, such as rising sea levels, warmer temperatures and fiercer storms. At the same time, better urban planning and policies can reduce energy use and greenhouse gas emissions and improve the resilience of urban infrastructure to climate change, thus shaping future trends. This book shows how city and metropolitan regional governments working in tandem with national governments can change the way we think about responding to climate change. Local involvement through "climate-conscious" urban planning and management can help achieve national climate goals and minimize trade offs between environmental and economic priorities at local levels.--Publisher's description.

AU - Vergara, Walter AB - "While the energy sector is a primary target of efforts to arrest and reverse the growth of greenhouse gas emissions and lower the carbon footprint of development, it is also expected to be increasingly affected by unavoidable climate consequences from the damage already induced in the biosphere. Energy services and resources, as well as seasonal demand, will be increasingly affected by changing trends, increasing variability, greater extremes and large inter-annual variations in climate parameters in some regions. All evidence suggests that adaptation is not an optional add-on but an essential reckoning on par with other business risks. Existing energy infrastructure, new infrastructure and future planning need to consider emerging climate conditions and impacts on design, construction, operation, and maintenance. Integrated risk-based planning processes will be critical to address the climate change impacts and harmonize actions within and across sectors. Also, awareness, knowledge, and capacity impede mainstreaming of climate adaptation into the energy sector. However, the formal knowledge base is still nascent?information needs are complex and to a certain extent regionally and sector specific. This report provides an up-to-date compendium of what is known about weather variability and projected climate trends and their impacts on energy service provision and demand. It discusses emerging practices and tools for managing these impacts and integrating climate considerations into planning processes and operational practices in an environment of uncertainty. It focuses on energy sector adaptation, rather than mitigation which is not discussed in this report. This report draws largely on available scientific and peer-reviewed literature in the public domain and takes the perspective of the developing world to the extent possible." CY - Washington, DC.

T3 - Advances in Spatial Science AB - The quantification of economic losses from natural and manmade hazards is necessary to gauge individual and community vulnerability, evaluate the worthiness of mitigation, determine the appropriate level of disaster assistance, improve recovery decisions, and inform insurers of their potential liability. Several notable studies dealing with hazard loss estimation have recently been undertaken. These include chapters in surveys by the National Research Council (NRC, 1999; Mileti, 1999) and Heinz Center (2000), as well as various case studies (see, e.g., Cole, 1995; Tierney, 1997; Shinozuka et al., 1998; Gordon et al., 1998; Chang et al., 2001).

Temperature-related mortality effects, salmonellosis and coastal flooding-induced mental health impacts resulting from climate change are isolated from the effects of socio-economic change for the 2011–2040 and 2071–2100 time periods. The temperature-induced mortality effects of climate change include both positive and negative effects, for winter (cold) and summer (heat) effects, respectively, and have welfare costs (and benefits) of up to 100 billion Euro annually by the later time-period, though these are unevenly distributed across countries. The role of uncertainty in quantifying these effects is explored through sensitivity analysis on key parameters. This investigates climate model output, climate scenario, impact function, the existence and extent of acclimatisation, and the choice of physical and monetary metrics. While all of these lead to major differences in reported results, acclimatisation is particularly important in determining the size of the health impacts, and could influence the scale and form of public adaptation at the EU and national level. The welfare costs for salmonellosis from climate change are estimated at potentially several hundred million Euro annually by the period 2071–2100. Finally, a scoping assessment of the health costs of climate change from coastal flooding, focusing on mental health problems such as depression, are estimated at up to 1.5 billion Euro annually by the period 2071–2100.

Climate change combines with the inequalities arising from globalization, decoupling the producers and subjects of risk. Remapping inequality in the age of climate change and globalization therefore requires taking account of the unbounding of both equality and inequality, and an awareness of the end of the opposition between society and nature, one of the founding principles of sociology. The article outlines four theses of inequality, climate change and globalization, and concludes with the question: what does a cosmopolitan renewal of the social sciences mean and how will it be possible?

Sie beschreiben die jährliche Wahrscheinlichkeit, mit der ein gegebenes Portfolio von Objekten ein vorgegebenes Schadensausmaß potentiell überschreitet. Die hier für Österreich erstmals berechneten Wahrscheinlichkeits-Überschreitungskurven für Hochwasserkatastrophen zeigen, dass für Wohngebäude privater Haushalte in Österreich ein Gesamtschadenvolumen von 100 Mio. € einmal in 1.000 Fällen (0,1%) überschritten wird; umgekehrt ausgedrückt bleibt der Gesamtschaden an privaten Wohngebäuden in 999 von 1.000 Fällen (99,9%) unter dem Wert von 100 Mio. €. Die Wahrscheinlichkeits-Überschreitungskurven erlauben auch die Berechnung der Grenzwerte für ein Sicherheitsniveau von 1 in 10.000 Fällen (0,01%). In diesem Fall würde für private Wohngebäude ein Gesamtschaden von 400 Mio. € einmal in 10.000 Fällen überschritten. Höhere Schäden können durchaus auftreten, die entsprechende Eintrittswahrscheinlichkeit ist jedoch gering. Die Berechnung von Wahrscheinlichkeits-Überschreitungskurven für öffentliche Gebäude, Gebäude des Dienstleistungssektors, der Industrie und des Gewerbes sowie sonstige Gebäude erlaubt eine umfassende Einschätzung des Hochwasserrisikos auf der Grundlage des Bestands aus dem Jahr 2005.

By virtue of a building-stock-value-weighted wind index, we use suitably normalised historical loss data of residential buildings over 12 years and corresponding wind speed data to calibrate the model. Subsequently, additional wind speed data is used to generate further scenarios and to obtain loss curves for storm risk that give rise to storm insurance loss quantiles and corresponding solvency capital requirements both on the aggregate and on the regional level. We also investigate the diversification effect across regions and use tools from extreme value theory to assess the insurability of storm risk in Austria in general.

This paper aims to address the limitations of existing studies by incorporating snowmaking in a sensitivity assessment with warming scenarios of up to 4°C conducted for 228 ski areas. A set of three indicators is used: the 100-day rule, a Christmas indicator and a season opening indicator. In the reference period 1961–90 the 100-day rule is fulfilled in 96% of the ski areas. A warming of 1°C, 2°C and 4°C would reduce this share to 81%, 57% and 18%, respectively. Ski operations over Christmas and New Year holidays, however, can be guaranteed only in 77% (reference period), 57% (+1°C), 33% (+2°C) and 9% (+4°C) of the ski areas. The most affected ski areas are located in Upper and Lower Austria and Styria. In a +2°C scenario, more than half of the ski areas would need to at least double the amount of technically produced snow. The model results demonstrate the importance of snowmaking as an adaptive tool to deal with climate variability and change, but also show the physical limits of current snowmaking technology.

T. T2 - Climatic Change AB - Vulnerability is an emerging concept for climate science and policy. Over the past decade, efforts to assess vulnerability to climate change triggered a process of theory development and assessment practice, which is reflected in the reports of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC). This paper reviews the historical development of the conceptual ideas underpinning assessments of vulnerability to climate change. We distinguish climate impact assessment, first- and second-generation vulnerability assessment, and adaptation policy assessment. The different generations of assessments are described by means of a conceptual framework that defines key concepts of the assessment and their analytical relationships. The purpose of this conceptual framework is two-fold: first, to present a consistent visual glossary of the main concepts underlying the IPCC approach to vulnerability and its assessment; second, to show the evolution of vulnerability assessments. This evolution is characterized by the progressive inclusion of non-climatic determinants of vulnerability to climate change, including adaptive capacity, and the shift from estimating expected damages to attempting to reduce them. We hope that this paper improves the understanding of the main approaches to climate change vulnerability assessment and their evolution, not only within the climate change community but also among researchers from other scientific communities, who are sometimes puzzled by the unfamiliar use of technical terms in the context of climate change.

Heat stress was described with the human-biometeorological index PET (Physiologically Equivalent Temperature). Based on the relation between heat stress and mortality in 1970–2007, we developed two approaches to estimate the increases with and without long-term adaptation. Until 2011–2040 no significant changes will take place compared to 1970–2000, but in the following decades heat-related mortality could increase up to 129% until the end of the century, if no adaptation takes place. The strongest increase occurred due to extreme heat stress (PET ≥ 41 °C). With long-term adaptation the increase is less pronounced, but still notable. This encourages the requirement for additional adaptation measurements.

Connecting science, policy and people AU - WHO - World Health Organization AB - A new report from WHO presents an overview of the science of the links between climate change and human health. It provides an update of the evidence on health risks caused by climate change, describes which populations are most vulnerable, and outlines the actions that will be necessary to protect health from climate change. Although climate change presents a very serious threat to global public health, the key messages of the report are positive. The health sector already has at its disposal a number of effective interventions that would save lives now and reduce vulnerability to climate change in the future. In addition, there are many policy options in sectors such as transport and energy production, that could simultaneously improve health and reduce emissions of greenhouse gases that cause climate change. The report notes the rapid increase in engagement by the health community on climate change and health, and outlines priority actions to further support healthy and sustainable development.

However, little attention has been paid to quantifying past demand changes owing to short-term climate variability. This paper examines the impacts of snow conditions on tourism demand in 185 Austrian ski areas in the period 1972/1973 to 2006/2007. For the majority of areas, a positive relationship is found between overnight stays and snow conditions; however, overnight stays in higher-lying areas typically show no dependency on snow conditions. Instead, some of them negatively depend on average Austrian snow conditions. Overall, a 1 standard deviation change in snow conditions led to a change in overnight stays of 0.6 to 1.9%, with estimates from the most reliable panel data models of 0.6 and 1.1%. Impacts were significantly higher for particular regions and for extreme seasons. However, temporal analysis reveals that impacts have decreased in recent years, probably owing to the major increase in snowmaking.

Frameworks of eEnvironment A2 - Hřebíček, Jiří A2 - Schimak, Gerald A2 - Denzer, Ralf T3 - IFIP Advances in Information and Communication Technology AB - Climate sensitive urban planning and building design require detailed information on effects of a changing climate. To simulate thermal building performance appropriate data are required as “standardized weather files”. But as historic weather records cannot be used to model building performance for future climate, synthetic “future weather” data are necessary. Here we present the steps to derive such data for the urban development project “Seestadt Aspern” in Vienna. We start with regional climate simulations with 10x10 km grid spacing, where hourly data for years of current and future climate have been extracted for the Aspern area. Micro-scale simulations at 5m-resolution have been carried out to consider local influences on urban micro-climate, taking regional simulation results as framework condition. As micro-simulation results are delivered only for single days, transfer functions have been developed to generate synthetic weather records, turning hourly regional climate simulation results into local climate characteristics.

AU - Zannoni, A. T2 - Natural Hazards and Earth System Science AB - Debris-flows occurring in the area of Cancia (Dolomites, Northeastern Italy) in recent years have exposed the population to serious risk. In response to the recurring hazard, an alarm and monitoring system was installed to provide a sufficient level of safeguard for inhabitants and infrastructures. The data recorded at three rain gauges during debris-flow events has been analysed, taking into consideration the different elevation of the gauges to delineate the storm rainfall distributions. Rainfall data is compared with the occurrence of debris-flows to examine relations between debris-flow initiation and rainfall. In addition, the data is compared with that recorded during debris-flows which occurred under similar or different geological settings in the Eastern Italian Alps, in order to define triggering thresholds. A threshold for debris-flow activity in terms of mean intensity, duration and mean annual precipitation (M.A.P.) is defined for the study area The normalised rainfall and the normalised intensity are expressed as a per cent with respect to M.A.P. This threshold is compared with thresholds proposed by other authors, and the comparison shows that a lower value is obtained, indicating the debris-flow susceptibility of the area. The threshold equations are: R/M.A.P. = - 1.36 · ln(I) + 3.93 where I > 2 mm/h I /M.A.P. = 0.74 · D-0.56. The determination of a debris-flow threshold is linked to the necessity of a fast decisional phase in a warning system for debris-flow protection. This threshold cannot be used as a predictive tool, but rather as a warning signal for technicians who manage the monitoring/warning system.

T2 - Procedia Engineering T3 - 12th International Conference on Computing and Control for the Water Industry, CCWI2013 AB - Pavement of the surfaces, along with a possible climate change induced increase of rainfall intensities, is one of key factors accountable for (increased) flooding in urban areas. Consequently higher runoffs have an impact on sewer system performance in terms of higher risk of flooding and decrease of storm water treatment performance. This paper presents a sensitivity analysis to compare impact of increased rainfall intensities and pavement of urban areas. It can be seen that both impacts result in a similar figure. Hence it is important to look into both aspects when trying to predict future performance of combined sewer systems.

In this Review we discuss infections acquired through various routes (arthropod vector, rodent, water, food, and air) in view of a changing climate in Europe. Based on an extensive review of published work and expert workshops, we present an assessment of the infectious disease challenges: incidence, prevalence, and distribution are projected to shift in a changing environment. Due to the high level of uncertainty on the rate of climate change and its impact on infectious diseases, we propose to mount a proactive public health response by building an integrated network for environmental and epidemiological data. This network would have the capacity to connect epidemic intelligence and infectious disease surveillance with meteorological, entomological, water quality, remote sensing, and other data, for multivariate analyses and predictions. Insights from these analyses could then guide adaptation strategies and protect population health from impending threats related to climate change.

AU - Armstrong, Ben AU - Davies, Clive R. T2 - Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America AB - There has been much recent speculation that global warming may allow the reestablishment of malaria transmission in previously endemic areas such as Europe and the United States. In this report we analyze temporal trends in malaria in Britain between 1840 and 1910, to assess the potential for reemergence of the disease. Our results demonstrate that at least 20% of the drop-off in malaria was due to increasing cattle population and decreasing acreages of marsh wetlands. Although both rainfall and average temperature were associated with year-to-year variability in death rates, there was no evidence for any association with the long-term malaria trend. Model simulations for future scenarios in Britain suggest that the change in temperature projected to occur by 2050 is likely to cause a proportional increase in local malaria transmission of 8–14%. The current risk is negligible, as >52,000 imported cases since 1953 have not led to any secondary cases. The projected increase in proportional risk is clearly insufficient to lead to the reestablishment of endemicity.

Although the mean precipitation over Austria has increased in the past three decades, runoff has changed little due to increases in the evapotranspiration. For the future (average 2021–2050) the summer months decreasing runoff is expected in Austria, with the exception of the East. In winter increasing runoff is expected, with the exception of the South. Analyses of the variability of runoff indicate that the natural variability of mean annual runoff clearly exceeds the projected changes due to climate change for the period 2021–2050. From a global Austrian perspective there is hence no need for different water resources management strategies. However, at the regional scale changes may occur. Regions that already have low specific discharges (in particular the East and the Southeast of Austria), needs particular attention in the adaptation strategies. An analysis of the groundwater levels in the past 30 years shows heterogeneous patterns in the porous aquifers in Austria. Out of a total of 2114 piezometers analysed, 70 % do not show a significant trend of the mean annual groundwater level. 12 % and 18 % show increasing and decreasing trends, respectively. The trends of the groundwater temperatures show clearer patterns. The observed increasing trends of the groundwater temperatures are likely to continue in a warmer climate. Along with projected changes in the climate variables controlling groundwater recharge, future tendencies in groundwater availability are discussed. In particular in the low precipitation areas in Austria a more detailed management of the groundwater resources may be needed.
