Uncertainty in climate change impacts on water resources in the Rio Grande Basin, Brazil [PDF]
We quantify uncertainty in the impacts of climate change on the discharge of Rio Grande, a major tributary of the Paraná River in South America and one of the most important basins in Brazil for water supply and hydro-electric power generation.

Incorporating climate change into pest risk models for forest pathogens : a role for cold stress in an era of global warming? [PDF]
Climate change may alter the distribution and activity of native and alien pathogens that infect trees and, in severe cases, cause tree death. In this study, potential future changes in climate suitability are investigated for three forest pathogens that

The simulation of Antarctic sea ice in the Hadley Centre Climate Model (HadCM3) [PDF]
AbstractAn assessment is presented of the extent and variability of Antarctic sea ice in the non-flux-corrected version of the Hadley Centre’s coupled atmosphere-ocean general circulation model (HadCM3). The results are based on a 100 year segment of a long control run of the model with the sea ice being compared to ice extents and concentrations ...

Simulation of the Future Climatic Changes in Jask Area and Its Impact on Hara Forests [PDF]
Mangrove tide etangs which are placed at border line between the arid and sea-land, have a considerable ecological and social–economical value. This study uses (LARS-WG) along with two GCM models (MIRH and HadCM3) and the A1B scenarios to simulate ...

Optimal tuning of a GCM using modern and glacial constraints [PDF]
In climate models, many parameters used to resolve subgrid scale processes can be adjusted through a tuning exercise to fit the model’s output to target climatologies.

North Atlantic Subtropical Mode Waters and Ocean Memory in HadCM3
Abstract A study of the formation and propagation of volume anomalies in North Atlantic Mode Waters is presented, based on 100 yr of monthly mean fields taken from the control run of the Third Hadley Centre Coupled Ocean–Atmosphere GCM (HadCM3). Analysis of the temporal and spatial variability in the thickness between pairs of isothermal

Regional climate projections in two alpine river basins: Upper Danube and Upper Brahmaputra [PDF]
Projections from coarse-grid global circulation models are not suitable for regional estimates of water balance or trends of extreme precipitation and temperature, especially not in complex terrain.

Simulation of ENSO forcings on U.S. drought by the HadCM3 coupled climate model [PDF]
The ability of the Hadley Centre Coupled Model, version 3 (HadCM3) ocean‐atmosphere general circulation model to represent the mechanisms linking the El Niño–Southern Oscillation (ENSO) and drought in the United States is investigated. Rotated principal components analyses of self‐calibrating Palmer drought severity index data are used to categorize ...
