LANDSCAPE ECOLOGICAL IMPACTS O F CLIMATIC CHANGE ON FLUVIAL SYSTEMS I N EUROPE

Climatic change has become a topic of major political and scientific concern and awareness is growing that the impact of changes in the hydrological cycle and regional hydrology might be important for society. The objective of this issue is to present the results of research on possible impacts of climatic change on fluvial systems and the way they interfere with changes in hydrology through land use changes. Emphasis is given to the temperate zones of Europe. The research that is presented here has been contributed to the European Conference on Landscape Ecological Impact of Climatic Change (LICC), held in December 1989 in The Netherlands (Boer and De Groot, 1990). This conference aimed to address the potential impact of climatic change on European semi-natural ecosystems and landscapes by (1) compiling existing scientific knowledge and information, (2) discussing methodologies and techniques for climate impact studies and, (3) formulating recommendations for future research and policies.

To meet these objectives the conference was scientifically prepared in six international multidisciplinary case study groups (
