Abstract: Increased rainfall fluctuations in individual years and during the year may have more negative effects, while in southern Europe are expected to decrease in summer, in northern and central EU is intensifying in winter. Extreme weather conditions such as heat waves and droughts, may seriously disrupt production, especially during critical phases of crop development. Many fruit trees are susceptible to spring frosts during flowering, the crop is highly affected by the winter temperatures. With warmer temperatures will advance both the date of the last spring frost and the beginning of flowering, the risk of damage is likely to remain largely unchanged. Risk of damage from autumn frosts will likely decrease the demand for water has increased. This paper discusses the role ecoremediation (natural purification systems) for adaptation to climate change.

Key words: rainfall, increase, heat waves, droughts, phases, crop, flowering, temperatures, ecoremediation, adaptation.
