Climate Extremes: Observations, Modeling, and Impacts
David R. Easterling,Gerald A. Meehl,Camille Parmesan,Stanley A. Changnon,Thomas R. Karl,Linda O. Mearns +5 more
TL;DR: Results of observational studies suggest that in many areas that have been analyzed, changes in total precipitation are amplified at the tails, and changes in some temperature extremes have been observed.

Journal ArticleDOI
The Importance of Land-Cover Change in Simulating Future Climates
Johannes J. Feddema,Johannes J. Feddema,Keith W. Oleson,Keith W. Oleson,Gordon B. Bonan,Gordon B. Bonan,Linda O. Mearns,Linda O. Mearns,Lawrence Buja,Lawrence Buja,Gerald A. Meehl,Gerald A. Meehl,Warren M. Washington,Warren M. Washington +13 more
TL;DR: Adding the effects of changes in land cover to the A2 and B1 transient climate simulations described in the Special Report on Emissions Scenarios (SRES) by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change leads to significantly different regional climates in 2100 as compared with climates resulting from atmospheric SRES forcings alone.
Journal ArticleDOI
Introduction to special section : Regional climate modeling revisited
Filippo Giorgi,Linda O. Mearns +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors provide an introduction to the special issue of the Journal of Geophysical Research on “New Developments and Applications With the NCAR Regional Climate Model (RegCM).
Guidelines for Use of Climate Scenarios Developed from Statistical Downscaling Methods
Robert L. Wilby,Stephen P. Charles,Eduardo Zorita,Bertrand Timbal,Peter Whetton,Linda O. Mearns +5 more
TL;DR: This article reviewed statistical methods of estimating point climate from coarse-scale climate projections, and provided guidance on the use of point climate data for many climate impact applications, especially for regions of complex topography, coastal or island locations, and in highly heterogeneous land cover.
