Climate extremes: observations, modeling, and impacts.
One of the major concerns with a potential change in climate is that an increase in extreme events will occur. Results of observational studies suggest that in many areas that have been analyzed, changes in total precipitation are amplified at the tails, and changes in some temperature extremes have been observed. Model output has been analyzed that shows changes in extreme events for future cl...
متن کاملDoes Grazing Affect Regional Climate?
Before European settlement, the Great Plains of the United States contained vast herds of bison. These bison altered the landscape through their grazing. Measurement data of the disturbance that such grazing could produce, when scaled for the large population of bison, were used with a coupled atmospheric–ecosystem model to evaluate the likely effect that this grazing had on the growing season ...
متن کاملRegional Climate Modeling: An Overview
Regional climate models are useful tools for regional climate research. They are especially helpful for studying the effects of topography, coastlines, and other complex landsurface properties on regional climate and for simulating these effects realistically. Although regional climate modeling started more than ten years ago, improvements in model physics and performance have been slow. There ...
متن کاملClimate extremes and climate change: The Russian heat wave and other climate extremes of 2010
[1] A global perspective is developed on a number of high impact climate extremes in 2010 through diagnostic studies of the anomalies, diabatic heating, and global energy and water cycles that demonstrate relationships among variables and across events. Natural variability, especially ENSO, and global warming from human influences together resulted in very high sea surface temperatures (SSTs) i...
متن کاملReliability of regional climate model simulations of extremes and of long-term climate
We present two case studies that demonstrate how a common evaluation methodology can be used to assess the reliability of regional climate model simulations from different fields of research. In Case I, we focused on the agricultural yield loss risk for maize in Northeastern Brazil during a drought linked to an El-Niño event. In Case II, the presentday regional climatic conditions in Europe for...
