Description: Das Projekt "Teilprogrammleitung NFP 31" wird vom Umweltbundesamt gefördert und von Schweizerische Meteorologische Anstalt - MeteoSchweiz durchgeführt. The main task is the program management of the program component 'climate change'. The main goal of the National Research Programme 31 entitled 'Climatic changes and natural disasters' (NRP 31) is the detailed examination of the effects of possible future climatic changes on the environment and society of Switzerland. The programme aims to help us understand better the effect that sudden short-term climatic events, as well as long-term climatic changes have on the environment, and to test how society and politicians react to these events. The 55 projectsinvolved in the NRP 31 are separated in five research domains: Climate, Hydrology, Natural risks, Ecosystems and Society. For practical implementation of the results a special domain have been formed. In order to encourage interdisciplinary co-operation and to gain a high density of information, a part of the projects have been focused on three well defined regions of the Swiss Alps. The research projects are due to be completed by 1996. Leading Questions: Key research questions of the NFP 31: (See also under the program NFP 31). 1. How may Switzerland look like after a climatic change? 2. Can the impact of climate change be quantified for a region as small as Switzerland? 3. What kind of natural and social risks will be taken into account in Switzerland as a consequence of climate change? How can we react?
