- Description:
- This dataset shows the number of climate models among 20 CMIP5 models that agree on an increasing trend in annual precipitation with regard to the 1971-2000 average.
We acknowledge the World Climate Research Programme's Working Group on Coupled Modelling, which is responsible for CMIP, 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 climate models were downscaled using the Multivariate Adaptive Constructed Analogs (MACA) Statistical Downscaling Method (Abatzoglou and Brown 2011). They were averaged per decade to provide this animation.Downscaled Climate Data provided by: John Abatzoglou, University of Idaho
