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 future5Main pollutant in the city of Barcelona are nitrogen oxides (NOx) produced by burning fuel in vehicle transit (mainly diesel), so the higher concentration levels are found very close to the emission source. In normal conditions, this pollution is spread due to the effect of the wind and exported outside the city confines. The problem occurs when in atmospherically stable conditions (intense and persistent anti-cyclonic conditions that can also cause heat inversions) the concentration of the pollutant increases and creates a regional accumulation as a result of the stagnation of air masses. Climate change could lead to an increase in the annual concentration of atmospheric pollutants, projections show an increase in the annual concentration of the pollutants analysed. The increase would be greatest in PM10 particles, average in NO2 and minimal in O3. All in all, under the hypothesis that emissions would be maintained, since it has not been possible to quantify its evolution over time. There has, however, been a downward trend in recent years, a foreseeable technological improvement, and changes in patterns of consumption and energy model are anticipated, which may have a significant impact on emissions levels in the future.It is forecast that for NO2 the number of high concentration days could see an overall increase of 22% by the end of the century in both considered scenarios, which would mean 7 more days a year on top of the 30-day annual average at present. The effect of the concentration increase will be greatest in the summer months.In terms of suspended particlesparticulate matter (PM10), it is predicted that by the end of the century the number of high concentration days could increase up to 41% for the “committed” scenario and 60% in the “passive” scenario . The current annual average is 40 days, and according to forecasts they would increase by 16-24 days a year. The increase would be year-round, but mainly in the spring and summer.The increase in O3 is predicted to be low. Projections show that up to the end of the century there will be a overall increase in high concentration days from 12-13% respectively in the “committed” and “passive” scenarios. With regard to the annual average of 18 days, in the current situation this would mean between 2 and 3 days more a year by the end of the century.

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 future6With 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 thecommitted 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. For the extreme case of torrid days (temperatures above 35ºC), the current average is nearly 1 day every 2 years. Under the committed scenario, simulations indicate that these phenomena will increase by approximately 2 days a year, while under the passive scenario the predicted increase will be 8 days.In 2018 the city suffered 30,6 hot days, which means an increase of 40% more than the average. Regarding torrid days, the city suffered 2,2 days, which was the estimated increase for the committed scenario.
