Projected increase in rainfall could increase soil erosion, while warming enhances vegetation cover, leading to overall mixed responses  . In Europe, rainfall erosion could increase by >81%  at 2ºC GWL, especially in NEU  where risks can be limited by soil erosion control . Decreased rainfall projected for parts of SEU could reduce erosion, although increases in rainfall intensity could offset this . Soil losses from fire will increase in SEU in response to 2°C GWL , especially if combined with extreme rainfall . In northern regions, reduced soil losses are projected during spring snowmelt .
