Updated regional precipitation and temperature changes for the 21st century from ensembles of recent AOGCM simulations

The physical basis for increases in precipitation extremes in simulations of 21st-century climate change.

Global warming is expected to lead to a large increase in atmospheric water vapor content and to changes in the hydrological cycle, which include an intensification of precipitation extremes. The intensity of precipitation extremes is widely held to increase proportionately to the increase in atmospheric water vapor content. Here, we show that this is not the case in 21st-century climate change...

21st century changes in the European climate: uncertainties derived from an ensemble of regional climate model simulations

climate model (RCM) simulations for 1961–2100. The RCM takes boundary conditions from seven global climate models (GCMs) under four emission scenarios. One GCM was run three times under one emission scenario differing only in initial conditions. The ensemble is used to; (i) evaluate the simulated climate for 1961–1990, (ii) assess future climate change and (iii) illustrate uncertainties in futu...

Predicting Changes of the Cultivation Areas for Astamaran and Berhi Cultivars in Iran in the 21st Century

Dates are one of the most important agricultural products exported from Iran. This plant is sensitive to environmental conditions and is not able to live and reproduce in all hot and dry areas in terms of quantity and quality. Dates have different varieties; each of them has the potential to adapt to a region of arid regions and can have the most production and economic yield in its proper plac...

Ileovesicostomy Update: Changes for the 21st Century

OBJECTIVES To review the literature regarding ileovesicostomy and evaluate our patient population for clinical characteristics. METHODS Various surgical reconstructive techniques allow management of difficult clinical scenarios involving patients with neurogenic bladder, irretraceable lower urinary tract symptoms, lower urinary tract disaster, and urethrocutaneous fistulae. One such reconstru...
