Evaluation of moisture sources for the Central European summer flood of May/June 2013 based on regional climate model simulations
Heavy precipitation affected Central Europe inMay/June 2013, triggering damaging floods both on the Danube and the Elbe rivers. Based on amodelling approach with COSMO-CLM,moisture fluxes, backward trajectories, cyclone tracks and precipitation fields are evaluated for the relevant time period 30May 2 June 2013.We identify potential moisture sources and quantify their contribution to the flood ...
متن کاملNitrogen yield and nitrogen use of chickpea compared to pea, barley and oat in Central Europe
European agriculture suffers from a substantial deficit of protein sources forlivestock and the projected changes in agro-climatic conditions in Central Europeinclude a higher risk of drought. To address these challenges, the drought resistantlegume crop chickpea was compared with pea, barley and oat regarding its nitrogen(N) yield, protein yield and N use and utilization efficiency under Centr...
متن کاملRecurring flood distribution patterns related to short-term Holocene climatic variability
Millennial- and multi-centennial scale climate variability during the Holocene has been well documented, but its impact on the distribution and timing of extreme river floods has yet to be established. Here we present a meta-analysis of more than 2000 radiometrically dated flood units to reconstruct centennial-scale Holocene flood episodes in Europe and North Africa. Our data analysis shows a g...
متن کاملCancer Control in Central and Eastern Europe
In the last decade, cancer mortality has declined by approximately 1% per year in both sexes in most areas of the world, including higherand lower-income regions [1]. However, as remarked by Vrdoljak et al. [2], appreciable differences in cancer incidence and mortality persist throughout various areas of the world, including Europe. In the 1990s, after the end of nonmarket economies in most of ...
