[Iris Keizer on Bluesky🦋: KeizerIris @KeizerIris]

In alle klimaatscenario’s nemen de temperatuur en de windsnelheid toe, terwijl de neerslag afneemt. Voor Caribisch Nederland geldt ook dat de verschillen in opwarming tussen de hoge en lage uitstootscenario’s vooral worden bepaald door de verschillen in mondiale uitstoot. 🏭

Wat laten de #klimaatscenarios zien voor Caribisch Nederland?

🌡️ Het wordt warmer en droger.

🌊 Sterke zeespiegelstijging vormt vooral een bedreiging voor het laaggelegen Bonaire.

🌀Op Sint Eustatius en Saba neemt de kans op zware orkanen met veel neerslag in de toekomst toe
