Expected Effects of Regional Climate Change on the Soil Moisture Regimes in Central Europe and Central US

Original language description

After the evaluation, SoilClim was run both in Central Europe and in Nebraska with the climatic data corresponding to the conditions expected under future climates taking into account three Global Circulation Models (NCAR-PCM, ECHAM and HadCM) and assuming the B1 and A2-SRES scenarios with low and high climate sensitivity for time slices of 2025, 2050 and 2100. It was found that under the present climate only a fraction of the territory of Central Europe is situated within the dry tempudic soil moistureregime, with high drought risk being confined to a small area. However, under a changing climate, a notable increase of the areas with a high probability of dry events was noted as well as sharp reduction of perudic (very-wet) mountainous areas that areessential for sustainable river flow.We found an especially alarming rate of these shifts in the soil climate characteristics taking place within decades rather than centuries. In the case of Central US (High Plains region) the eastward
