ÖKS 15 – the status quo of climate scenarios

The current Austrian climate scenarios date from the year 2015 (ÖKS15) and are based on Euro Cordex data sets. Together with the analyzes derived from them, the ÖKS15 provide an overview of the effects of climate change in Austria and provide a basis for further detailed studies that are available to the scientific community free of charge.

Stakeholder dialogue

With the broad communication and preparation of the ÖKS26+, various stakeholder and target groups should be addressed and be able to benefit from the research results. The broad uptake and usage of results will be facilitated by intensive exchange formats between practice and science as well as by means of professional graphic and technical implementation of the results. This process will start from 2024 and will accompany the research results until the beginning of 2026 and beyond in order to guarantee a broad  use of the ÖKS26+ scenarios.
