Precipitation projection using a CMIP5 GCM ensemble model: a regional investigation of Syria
The possible changes in precipitation of Syrian due to climate change are projected in this study. The symmetrical uncertainty (SU) and multi-criteria decision-analysis (MCDA) methods are used to identify the best general circulation models (GCMs) for ...

Sensitivity of the global carbonate weathering carbon-sink flux to climate and land-use changes [PDF]
The response of carbonate weathering carbon-sink flux (CCSF) to its environmental drivers is still not well understood on the global scale. This hinders understanding of the terrestrial carbon cycle.

Representative Concentration Pathways (RCP) scenarios are based on assumptions about the future development of radiative forcing. There are 4 RCP scenarios, but only 2 RCP scenarios are used in this study, RCP 4.5 and RCP 8.5. The aims are to identify characteristics and percentage changes in extreme climate indices in the future. CMIP5 model data such

Future ozone air quality and radiative forcing over China owing to future changes in emissions under the Representative Concentration Pathways (RCPs) [PDF]
AbstractWe apply the nested grid version of the Goddard Earth Observing System (GEOS) chemical transport model (GEOS‐Chem) to assess 2000–2050 changes in O3 air quality and associated radiative forcing in China owing to future changes in emissions under the Representative Concentration Pathways (RCP2.6, RCP4.5, RCP6.0, and RCP8.5).
