- Description:
- Degree of agreement (0-3) between 3 GCMs (CSIRO, CGCM3 and MIROC5) climate projections of increased mean annual precipitation under the A2 emission scenario from the 1971-2000 baseline. Results are shown per decade over the 21st century.
We acknowledge the World Climate Research Programme's Working Group on Coupled Modelling, which is responsible for CMIP (Climate Model Intercomparison Project), and the climate modeling groups for producing and making available their model output. For CMIP, the U.S. Department of Energy's Program for Climate Model Diagnosis and Intercomparison provides coordinating support and led development of software infrastructure in partnership with the Global Organization for Earth System Science Portals.Climate projections from the general circulation models (GCMs) were downscaled using the standard statistical anomaly method (Fowler et al. 2007).
