During the Third General Assembly in Madrid (Spain) Silvio Gualdi, CIRCE RL2 co-leader, announced that the work about CIRCE models have been completed. For the first time, models and scenario ad hoc for the Mediterranean region, including the effects of the Mediterranean Sea, have been prepared.

 "We have already analysed several models of precipitation and evaporation in the Mediterranean area and according to future preliminary runs for the 21st century, it is likely that reduction in precipitation and increase in evaporation over the sea will occure”. These are some of the outcomes of Research Line 5- Water Cycle , as the co-leader Alpert Pinhas, from the Tel Aviv University, presented on Angela Simone’s (Circe Communication Office) microphone.

An extreme event is a rare event and depends on frequency, space and time. It is difficult to make a general statement on classes od extreme events and very often climate models, even regional climate models, don't have the resolution which is sufficient to describe extreme events. For all these reasons there is an entire research line dedicated to extreme events in the Mediterranean area within the CIRCE project. Piero Lionello, interviewed by Angela Simone (CIRCE communicationo office), associate professor at the University of Salento- Lecce (Italy) is the co-leader of RL6 (Extreme Events).

Reseach Line 7 (Impacts of Global Change on Ecosystems and the services they provide) is at the end of the process of CIRCE because its aim is evaluating the impact of climate change on several human activities like agriculture, forestry products and ecosystem services.
Some simulations already produced indicate that for the future climate change will impact differently on crops. For instance, grapevines will be affected but olive trees cultivation perhaps would be enhanced. These are some of the results of the RL7, as Riccardo Valentini, RL7 co-leader and scientist at the University of Tuscia (Viterbo, Italy), explained to Angela Simone (CIRCE Communication office).
