Sažetak
Most climate models anticipate a surface air temperature rise of several degrees Celsius during the next century supposing carbon dioxide (CO2) concentration in the atmosphere is going to double. As a consequence of the Earth's surface warming, a sea level rise of several tens of centimeters can be expected in the same period. These changes will not have the same intensity during the whole year, they will depend on the season and the different parts of the world. In this paper, the influence of these changes on the islands of Cres and Lošinj is considered. A higher increase in annual temperature could be expected (up to 5°C) at the end of the
21th century. A significant change in annual precipitation is not very probable. However, a decrease in precipitation during summer and autumn and an increase during winter and spring has been established. A change in other climatic elements can also be expected.
