Anthropogenic climate change amplified flood peaks during the September 2024 Storm Boris floods more strongly than it intensified rainfall. This is the conclusion of an international research team led by the Helmholtz Centre for Environmental Research (UFZ), to which the Czech University of Life Sciences Prague (CZU) also contributed. Without climate change, event precipitation would have been around 6–9% lower, depending on the climate model, while flood peaks would have been 14–22% lower on average. The study was published in Science Advances.

The Rector of the Czech University of Life Sciences in Prague is pleased to invite you to a public ceremonial meeting of the CZU Scientific Council, which will take place on 23 November 2026 at 2 p.m. in the CZU Auditorium.

On 3 and 4 November 2026, the Czech University of Life Sciences Prague (CZU) will once again promote health, disease prevention and a healthy lifestyle. This year’s Health Days will primarily focus on university employees, offering individual medical consultations and health screenings. However, the event will also have a significant charitable dimension. Every visitor will have the opportunity to support the Viki Foundation, which helps children battling cancer and their families.
