Based on a large ensemble of simulations using eight GCMs and seven GHMs, this study provides a comprehensive assessment of the effects of climate change and direct anthropogenic disturbances on the terrestrial water cycle. Despite considerable spread in the individual results, a number of robust conclusions can be drawn at the regional and global scale. The results indicate that In support of European environmental and agricultural policies, this work provides a large-scale overview on irrigation water requirements in Europe applying a uniform approach with a sufficiently 4.3 Per capita domestic water demand, 1995, 2010, and 2025 5.1 Total and irrigation water consumption under business-as-usual, water cri- In the past four years, IFPRI has developed the IMPACT-WATER model, functions through community and incentive-based management is supported European Union 15.

Estimation of irrigation demands 4 2.2 Water demands for electricity production A new methodology has been implemented to estimate and map water requirements for energy production in Europe. In this study, the category of dedicated energy crops (ENCR) played an important role. These crops are expected to emerge as additional fuel sources within the EU28 2020. Water requirements From these available data, population and employment raster data were used for the analysis. Based upon the latter and a calibrated related rate of water use (litre per unit per time interval), rasterised yearly and winter water demands were calculated. These rasters represent the alpine character of the study area and are independent of The model represents three agricultural commodities: crop, meat, and fish.

Key messages. In Europe, between 2005 and 2013, the average water intensity of crop production was around 6 m 3 of water (irrigation plus soil moisture) for one unit of gross value added (GVA*) from all crops. In 2013, around 9 % less water was input to crops to produce the same GVA as in 2005. storing and redistributing water, reservoirs significantly increase water availability for irrigation. As an effect of climate change and socioeconomic change, however, irrigation and other water demands are expected to grow and put more pressure on available water resources [e.g. Alcamo et al., 2007; D�ll, 2002].
