Not exact matches

The study features maps of the state and shows the climate risk to 30 different vegetation types under different climate scenarios.

A new buzz - word is the concept of «seamless prediction», in which predictions ranging from nowcasting all the way to future scenarios are provided with a sliding time scale and that doesn't make distinction of incremental types such as «weather forecasts» «seasonal predictions» and «climate scenarios».

With Climate Central's summer interactive, users can type in a U.S. city and get an idea of how drastically summer will devolve into a Mad Max - like scenario.

The WGI report is based on a new type of scenarios of future anthropogenic emissions called Representative Concentration Pathways (RCPs), which include a mitigation scenario leading to a very low climate forcing, two stabilization scenarios and one scenario with very high GHG emissions.

As it turns out, these alarmists were pushing (and still are) a unicorn - type of science, based on fantasy climate change scenarios, which almost all have failed to happen.

In projected future climate scenarios, divergence in the time of day and type of precipitation had very divergent impacts on the radiation balance and consequently on surface temperatures.

Sample scenarios of changing climate, expanded agriculture, and urbanization demonstrate the usefulness of this type of modeling for regional water planning.

The specific climate scenario needs of the impacts community vary, depending on the geographic region considered, the type of impact, and the purpose of the study.

The Chapter does not state why it chooses only to consider one type of quantitative model, but says that its «Writing Team» listed 519 scenarios of the type they decided to accept, and that 150 of these «were mitigation (climate policy) scenarios».

«The Chapter considers only one type of quantitative future - predictive climate model and «does not include quantitative scenarios produced using other methods; for example heuristic estimation such as Delphi».

However, we demonstrated that there is specialisation of the coral host to particular reef environments, with each strain of coral host associating only with particular types of symbiotic algae... the results also highlight the lack of connectivity between different habitats on a single reef, such as shallow and deep water, which has important implications under future climate change scenarios, as coral reefs will be largely dependent on neighbouring areas for their recovery.

The range of projected global warming of 1.6 — 6.9 °C was from a wide set of emission scenarios examined with a number of different types of models, including AOGCMs, simple climate models and Earth system models (including both GCMs and simple models incorporating biogeochemical feedbacks).

It's very difficult to find reliable / consistent figures for any type of energy source decades out in the future, and it's equally difficult to compare the various proposed scenarios for climate change amelioration.

The first paper (Flower et al., 2013) used downscaled climate data from global climate models, subject to three different emissions scenarios, to examine the effect of projected climate change on the distribution of Douglas Fir and three types of spruce.
