The regional impact of global climate change is assessed for the hydrology, agriculture, forest, energy, tourism and health sectors in Germany. To do so, we use a “model chain” developed at the Potsdam-Institute for Climate Impact
Research (PIK). The simulation models in the chain have been developed in concert and are specifically tuned to each other, having been interconnected in past studies and projects. Examples of model chain applications in a series of regional impact studies of global climate change for Germany are given in the reference section below.
The links of the model chain are:
