The applicability of regional climate models at the scale of small island states
ثبت نشده
چکیده
Consult with the IPCC about the feasibility of the IPCC providing information to the SBSTA at its twelfth session on the applicability of regional climate models at the scale of small island states. Issues to be considered could include: projected sea-level rise; storm surges; projected atmospheric temperature changes; sea surface temperatures; climate variability; rainfall; changes in global circulation patterns; human health and settlement; and any other finding that could assist in the evaluation of coastal adaptation technologies.

Study of the models of large-scale atmospheric circulation system model on intesify rainfall in Ardebil plain
Atmospheric circulation is important to determine the surface climate and environment, and affect regional climate and surface features. In this study, to quantify its effect, the classification system, developed by Lamb is applied to obtain circulation information for Ardabil, North West Province in Iran, on a daily basis, and is a method to classify synoptic weather for study area. For that p...
متن کاملClimate Variability and Change and Their Potential Health Effects in Small Island States: Information for Adaptation Planning in the Health Sector
Small island states are likely the countries most vulnerable to climate variability and longterm climate change. Climate models suggest that small island states will experience warmer temperatures and changes in rainfall, soil moisture budgets, prevailing winds (speed and direction), and patterns of wave action. El Niño events likely will strengthen shortterm and interannual climate variations....

Global warming and then climate change are important topics studied by researchers throughout the world in the recent decades. In these studies, climatic parameters changes are investigated. Considering large-scaled output of AOGCMs and low precision in computational cells, uncertainty analysis is one of the principles in doing hydrological studies. For this reason, it is tried that investigati...

متن کاملA simple form of MT impedance tensor analysis to simplify its decomposition to remove the effects of near surface small-scale 3-D conductivity structures
Magnetotelluric (MT) is a natural electromagnetic (EM) technique which is used for geothermal, petroleum, geotechnical, groundwater and mineral exploration. MT is also routinely used for mapping of deep subsurface structures. In this method, the measured regional complex impedance tensor (Z) is substantially distorted by any topographical feature or small-scale near-surface, three-dimensional (...
