The results of the projection below are based on HadGEM2-ES model,
RCP4.5 and RCP8.5 scenarios. As part of the Climate Change for Denizli 2015-
2044 (short-term) and 2045-2074 (long term) periods, in temperatures and
precipitation regimes,
• An increase in the number of extremely hot days for all periods,
• An increase in heat waves,
• An increase in precipitation density,
• A change in precipitation, particularly a decrease in precipitation in
summer rains.
• And an increase in drought indicators are expected.
As seen in Figure 4, in Denizli, a change from semi-dry and semi-wet climate
to dry climate is anticipated.

Figure 4: The anticipated precipitation change in Türkiye based on the RCP8.5
scenarios of CMIP5 and CORDEX.
The CMIP5 projection involving the RCP8.5 scenario points to the fact that
precipitation will not change until 2035. On the other hand, it is anticipated
that especially in Southern regions, there will be a decrease in precipitation.
