| Zusammenfassung |
| Some strong natural fluctuations of climate in the Eastern Mediterranean
(EM) region are shown to be connected to the major tropical systems.
Potential relations between EM rainfall extremes to tropical systems, e.g.
El Niño, Indian Monsoon and hurricanes, are demonstrated. For a specific
event, high resolution modelling of the severe flood on 3-5 December 2001
in Israel suggests a relation to hurricane Olga. In order to understand the
factors governing the EM climate variability in the summer season, the
relationship between extreme summer temperatures and the Indian Monsoon was
examined. Other tropical factors like the Red-Sea Trough system and the Saharan dust are also likely to
contribute to the EM climate variability. |
