ABSTRACT
Future climatic changes due to increasing atmospheric concentrations of radiatively active trace gases are likely to induce significant regional changes in land use potential in Europe. Three approaches to assessing the effects of climatic change on land use potential are identified descriptive, correlational and physiological. These are illustrated (with particular reference to agriculture) using examples from assessments already completed both within Europe and elsewhere in the world. Potential technological and management responses to climatic change are also briefly outlined. (AU)
