Abstract The spruce bark beetle Ips typographus is one of the major insect pests mature Norway forests. In this study, a model describing temperature‐dependent thresholds for swarming activity and temperature requirement development from egg to adult was driven by transient regional climate scenario data Sweden, covering period 1961–2100 three future change scenarios (SRES A2, A1B B2). During 20th century, weather supported production generation per year, except in north‐western mountainous...

We describe the process of building a climate service centred on regional model results from Rossby Centre RCA4. The has as its central facility web provided by Swedish Meteorological and Hydrological Institute where users can get an idea various aspects change suite maps, diagrams, explaining texts user guides. Here we present contents how this been designed developed in collaboration with dialogue reaching over more than decade. also ensemble projections RCA4 that provides fundamental...
In climate change research ensembles of simulations are produced in an attempt to cover the uncertainty future projections. Many impact studies face difficulties using full number available, and therefore often only subsets used. Until now such were chosen based on their representation temperature or by accessibility simulations. By more specific information about needs study as guidance for clustering simulations, subset fits purpose appropriately. Here, sensitivity a procedure is explored,...
We study the history of storminess in Northern Europe, as derived from local pressure observations Lund since 1780 and Stockholm 1820 (Sweden). At both stations barometer readings were made three times per day, morning, midday evening, after about 1850 at fixed observation hours. use four common indices: annual number deep lows (p < 980 hPa), 95th 99th percentile changes between two observations, fast absolute (∣Δp∣/Δt > 16 hPa/12 h). It turns out that 1980's–mid 1990's a period...

Abstract Extra‐tropical cyclone frequency and intensity are currently under intense scrutiny because of the destruction recent windstorms have brought to Europe, they a major meridional heat transport mechanism that may respond differential latitudinal warming trends. Several studies using reanalysis data covering second half 20th century suggest increasing storm in northeastern Atlantic European sector. Fewer analyses cover longer time period but show different trends or point towards...
Scots pine transfer effect models for growth and survival, valid in both Sweden Finland have been developed.• The use high-resolution gridded climate data can predict performance future climatic conditions.• perform well unimproved genetically improved material be used to develop deployment recommendations of contemporary forest regeneration Finland.
Ongoing and future climate change will affect our built environment. It have an impact on how we should design structures to withstand the One important load when designing buildings in high latitudes elevations is snow load, which many countries governing for roofs other structural parts. A warmer may lead a reduction cover. How this relates extreme values that occur very seldom, however, unclear. For some regions increase precipitation fall over winter, thus higher loads even climate. The...
In this study, we quantify the effect of uncertainties in climate projections on an impact model (IPS) that describes temperature-dependent swarming and development Ips typographus. Three forcing data sets (ensembles) were used: (1) E-Obs gridded observations, (2) ERA-40 reanalysis downscaled by eight regional models (RCMs) (3) scenarios from one RCM forced seven GCM simulations representing SRES-A1B, for period 1961–2097. The IPS_RCM_ERA40 ensemble members, including IPS_RC3_ERA40,...
