Please also select the most relevant assets or services that are affected by the climate hazard and provide a description of the impact.12Please describe the impacts experienced so far, and how you expect the hazard to impact in the future1Barcelona currently has an average annual temperature of 18ºC. If the Catalan Meteorological Service's projected increases in temperature caused by climate change prove correct, Barcelona may experience a 1.6ºC increase in average annual temperature by the middle of the century and 1.7ºC by 2100, in the case of global emissions being reduced in accordance with the Paris agreements (committed scenario or RCP 4.5). This forecast could get worse if the current levels of emissions continue (passive scenario or RCP 8.5), producing a 2ºC temperature increase by the middle of the century and 3ºC by 2100. The SMC has modelled different parameters relating to extreme temperatures, both during the day and night-time, to see the evolution up to the end of the century. Although for some parameters there may be a slight overestimation of simulated future values (as shown if we comparereal and simulated data in the control period 1971-2000), what we see is a clear trend towards an increase in days with high temperatures, an increase in the frequency of heat waves and also a slight trend for heat waves to last longer. With regard to hot days (temperatures above 30ºC), Barcelona currently has an average of 22 days a year. Current models suggest an increase to 50 days a year by the end of the century for the committed scenario and 80 days a year for the passive scenario. In both scenarios, the areas most affected by high temperatures are those furthest from the sea, as its thermoregulatory effect does not reach them. Similarly, simulations carried out also suggest that in coming years heat waves may be more numerous, more severe and have a longer duration. Barcelona currently suffers an average of 1 heat wave every 4 years. In coming years, this number will increase, reaching 1 heat wave a year in the pledgedcommitted scenario and 4 or 5 heat waves a year in the passive scenario. Another major aspect is the foreseeable increase in the duration of these heat waves. An average increase of 3 days for the committed scenario and between 6 and 8.6 days for the passive scenario. In 2018 the city suffered a heat wave that lasted 7 days, causing 23 deaths. From 2015 to 2018 the city registered 3 heat wave event which represents 3 heat waves every 4 years.
