Climate change will lead to persistent changes in temperature and precipitation patterns which will affect the characteristics of wine produced in each region.
Knowledge has been accumulated on the impact of microclimate, in particular berry temperature and irradiation, for a wide range of red varieties. However, little research has been dedicated on the effects of the same factors on the quality of white grape varieties.
Global change in climate affect regional climates and hold implications for viticulture worldwide. Despite numerous studies on the impact of projected global warming on different regions
Spatial climate data at a 1 km resolution has allowed for a comprehensive mapping and assessment of viticulture DOs regions in Portugal. Overall the 50 regions and sub-regions in Portugal range
Climate change could put at risk viticultural areas situated at the hotter margins of Vitis vinifera growth climatic range. We focus on two such regions with a Mediterranean climate
