As time proceeds, the signal of greenhouse-gas-induced precipitation changes becomes better
discerned from natural variability. In the decade 2041-2050, the probability of increasing
annual mean precipitation over Finland, north-western Russia and much of Scandinavia is 85-
95%. However, even at this time, the increase in precipitation is less certain in summer than in
the other seasons (Figure

A second, but usually smaller, increase in runoff oc-
curs in the autumn. In northern Finland more than 95% of annual
maximum floods are caused by spring snowmelt (cf. Fig. 7a). Also
the small upstream lakes in the northern part of the lake area
and the northernmost of the coastal rivers fall mainly into this cat-
egory. In most coastal rivers the major floods can be caused by
either snowmelt

on Climate Change best estimates for the global mean temperature
change by the end of the 21st century vary from 1.8 qC to 4.0 qC between the SRES scenarios
with the smallest (B1) and the largest (A1FI) greenhouse gas emissions (IPCC 2007). For
shorter time horizons, however, the scenario uncertainty is much smaller. On one hand, there
is inertia in the socio-economical system
