RT conference output T1 Utility of agroclimatic stations to characterize microclimate and climate change in the sherry area over the last 20 years A1 Gómez Benítez, Juan A2 Ingeniería Química y Tecnología de Alimentos AB In this work we analyze climatic data of temperatures, rainfall, winds and bioclimatic indexesfor the last 20 years obtained from 8 agroclimatic stations distributed in the cultivation areas of the Sherry.The effects of climate change have been confirmed and maximum temperatures show a clear tendency toincrease, which could lead to a considerable increase in maximum temperatures in the coming years. Ithas been observed that the average maximum temperatures during the summer in Jerez exceed 32 ºC, whilein El Puerto and Sanlúcar they are appreciably cooler and are in the order of 30.5 ºC. It has also beenverified a reduction of rainfall by almost 100 L/m2 in recent years, and verifying that rainfall has a certaincyclical character. It has been tested that predominant winds in Jerez are from the east, in Sanlúcar theyare from the west and El Puerto has an intermediate wind regime. Significant differences have beenobserved between climatic stations located at short distances, showing the convenience of havingagroclimatic stations in the most important vineyard areas and in the most suitable areas of the winerydistricts of the cities to adequately characterize their microclimate in relation to the wine industry.
