Project title:

Impact of Climate Change on Precipitation Patterns in Belgium

Research question

What is the impact of climate change on rainfall patterns in Sint-Katelijne-Waver, Belgium?

Identify the local environmental/climate problem you want to investigate

Climate change changes the weather patterns in Belgium. Winters are getting wetter and milder, while summers are becoming warmer and drier. These changes have important consequences, like more extreme precipitation events causing floods and periods of drought that make it difficult for farming, water supply, and ecosystems to thrive.

This project aims to investigate the impact of temperature change on precipitation patterns in Belgium, more precisely in Sint-Katelijne-Waver.

Project topic

Weather measurements

Describe how you plan to investigate the problem identified and which data you plan to analyse.
