Climate change, impacts and vulnerability in Europe 2016

The report “Climate change, impacts and vulnerability in Europe 2016” has been recently published by the European Environmental Agency (EEA). It is an indicator-based assessment of past and projected climate change and its impacts on ecosystems and society. It also looks at society’s vulnerability to these impacts and at the development of adaptation policies and the underlying knowledge base. This is the fourth ‘Climate change, impacts and vulnerability in Europe’ report, which is published every four years. This edition aims to support the implementation and review process of the 2013 EU Adaptation Strategy, which is foreseen for 2018, and the development of national and transnational adaptation strategies and plans.

The report contains several analysis related to droughts in the past and future, including contributions from several EDC members. Many chapters refer to droughts, in particular:
Section 4.3.4 – Meteorological and hydrological droughts – page 144;
Section 7.2.4 – Water (water quality, floods, water scarcity and droughts) – page 317.
