ABSTRACTIn this study, we provide inputs for the preparation of documents for assessing climate change impact for Algeria. To demonstrate climate change in Algeria, a climate change detection is done by calculating climate change indices, proposed by the Expert Team on Climate Change Detection and Indices (ETTCCDI). Downscaled GCM outputs data for two contradictory scenarios (A2 and B1) are used to calculate the changes in climate parameters. These changes are used to generate synthetic future data from a stochastic weather generator, which can be used as inputs in an agricultural impact model. Finally, we showed that Algeria is actually affected by climate change and the most affected sector is that of agriculture.
