This paper explores the projected changes on wind, relative humidity and solar radiation in future scenarios for the Basque Country. This work is part of the UrbanKlima2050 initiative and aims to provide a more comprehensive characterization of future climate change impacts in the region, and thus, improve the resiliency of the territory. The main results show a decrease in both wind and relative humidity by the end of this century, while solar radiation tends to increase.

We presents the Basque Country Impact Weather Catalogue, recording detailed information on adverse weather events and their environmental impacts. It includes context, hazard/risk, and impact sections, utilizing data from Euskalmet, Emergency, Media, Insurance, etc. Standardized information enables qualitative and quantitative analysis feasibility for events spanning the 21st century. The paper details catalogue design, structure, and implementation steps.

This study examines floods in the Basque Autonomous Community from 2000 to 2021, assessing damages, weather conditions, and other factors. It uses data from the Spanish Insurance Compensation Consortium and the AWS network, analyzing diverse datasets to extract indicators. Visual analytics are used for analysis and characterization.

Facebook is one of the most used social networks and it represents a perfect virtual platform to share information and to promote active and immediate interaction amongst users. This is why many NMSs develop new communication strategies and incorporate this tool for different purposes. In this paper we investigate how Facebook was introduced in different NMSs worldwide as an additional tool for the diffusion of meteorological information and interction with users.
