Description:
Average monthly maximum temperature for the years 2070-2099.
Data Provided By:
Dataset provided by Ray Drapek, PNW Research Station.

Fine grid detail came from historical data which came from the following sources: 1) Eastern Canada data obtained from the Canadian Forest Service. Marty Siltanen was the main contact. 2) Western Canada and Alaska came from Climate Source LLC (www.climatesource.com). 3) Data for the conterminous USA came from the Oregon Climate Service.

Future tax anomalies came from  the WCRP CMIP3 multi-model database website. CSIRO Mk3.0 / SRES A2 data.
