Projected changes in flood-generating precipitation extremes over the Czech Republic in high-resolution regional climate models

Original language description

Climate change scenarios of high quantiles of 5-day precipitation amounts (proxies for flood-generating events) over the Czech Republic are evaluated in an ensemble of high-resolution Regional Climate Model (RCM) simulations from the ENSEMBLES project. The climate change scenarios for the late 21st century (2070?99) show widespread increases in high quantiles of 5-day precipitation amounts in winter, consistent with projected changes in mean winter precipitation. In summer, increases in precipitation extremes occur despite an overall drying, which may have important hydrological implications. The spatial pattern of projected changes in summer precipitation extremes, with larger increases in the western part of the area and smaller changes towards east,may point to a declining role of Mediterranean cyclones in producing precipitation extremes in Central Europe in a future climate.
