Developing Regionally Downscaled Probabilistic Climate Change Projections

Active
By Climate Adaptation Science Centers April 9, 2013

The USGS is deploying state­ of­ the science statistics to identify the parameters in global models that are most likely to affect the Southeast region’s climate and local landscape dynamics. This project is a part of the Southeast Regional Assessment Project (SERAP).  Decision makers will be provided with information about low­ probability, high­ impact climate extremes. The downscaled models then can be used by other SERAP research teams to conduct their assess­ments of regional change.
