In the Clim4Cast project, a multi-temporal forecasting system for drought, heatwaves, and fire weather (DHF) will be established for central Europe. The resulting tool will be integrated into existing national drought monitoring platforms. In addition, the effects of climate change on the occurrence and characteristics of DHF will be quantified. The results will be the basis for a strategy to increase climate change and DHF awareness. A special action plan that sets up proper response mechanisms will be developed as well. The uniqueness of Clim4Cast lies firstly in sharing and jointly utilising existing partner knowledge of (1) extreme weather and climate events, (2) diverse strategies of communication, and (3) established networks of stakeholders and users of the newly-developed tool. Secondly, the project will develop and implement a multi-temporal forecast that is currently missing in existing tools. The project output will serve as an early warning system that can be utilised by diverse stakeholders and implemented into national legislative frameworks.
