Climate change induced discharge scenarios for the Rhine basin
Summary

As part of its Program Rhine 2040 entitled "The Rhine and its Catchment - Sustainably Managed and Climate-resilient", the ICPR mandated its climate expert group (EG HCLIM) with an update of the ICPR climate scenarios by 2024. This has now been completed and published as ICPR technical report no. 297. While the previous ICPR scenarios, published in 2011, were based on information of the 4th assessment report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), this update generally relies on the 5th IPCC assessment. These new scenarios form the basis for updating the climate change adaptation strategy of the Rhine basin by 2025.
