Climate change and growth scenarios for California wildfire
(2011-11)Large wildfire occurrence and burned area are modeled using hydroclimate and landsurface characteristics under a range of future climate and development scenarios. The range of uncertainty for future wildfire regimes is ... -
Climate change scenarios and sea level rise estimates for California 2008 Climate Change Scenarios Assessment
(2009-03)For the 2008 California Climate Change Assessment, to further investigate possible future climate changes in California, a set of 12 climate change model simulations was selected and evaluated. From the Intergovernmental ... -
Climate change, ecosystems and smallholder agriculture in Central America: an introduction to the special issue
(2017-03)Central America is one of the regions most exposed to climate change (Giorgi 2006). A narrow isthmus between the Pacific Ocean and the Caribbean Sea, it is strongly affected by droughts, hurricanes and the El Niño-southern ... -
Climate Change, Growth, and California Wildfire
(2009-03)Large wildfire occurrence and burned area are modeled using hydroclimate and landsurface characteristics under a range of future climate and development scenarios. The range of uncertainty for future wildfire regimes is ... -
Climate Forecasts Improve for Latin America
(2003)NOAA/AOML and its partners at the University of Costa Rica (UCR) are improving the way climate forecasts are prepared at Regional Climate Outlook Forums (RCOFs) in Latin America. The RCOFs, which began in 1997, bring outside ... -
Climate of Central America and the Caribbean, Climate of
(2005)Central America and the Caribbean span the deep tropics and subtropics. Because of the tropical maritime location temperature changes throughout the region are generally small, and rainfall is by far the most important ... -
Climate Perspectives in the Intra-Americas Seas
(2020)The Intra–Americas Seas region is known for its relevance to air–sea interaction processes, the contrast between large water masses and a relatively small continental area, and the occurrence of extreme events. The differing ... -
Climate precursors of multidecadal drought variability in the western United States
(2004-12-07)Low-frequency (periodicities lower than 20 years) hydrologic variability in the western United States over the past 500 years is studied using available tree-ring reconstructions of Palmer Drought Severity Index (PDSI), ... -
Climate scenarios and impacts of droughts and other hydrometeorological events in the Central American dry corridor
(2019)Predicting rainfall during April-May-June (AMJ), as the first peak of the rainy season in the Central American isthmus, is very important since it has been observed that more or less humid conditions during AMJ tend to ... -
Climate Variability and Change in Central America: What Does It Mean for Water Managers?
(2021)Central America is a unique climate region in the world, due to its location and shape, as well as the many large and local scale climate processes that influence its variability and change at a large range of spatial ... -
Climate variability of precipitation in Ceará Region, Northeast of Brazil
(2023-11-20)The state of Ceará is a semi-arid region located in the Northeast region of Brazil, characterized by an irregular rainy season, great climate variability mainly driven by the El Niño–Southern Oscillation (ENSO), Sea Surface ... -
Climatic Features and Their Relationship with Tropical Cyclones Over the Intra-Americas Seas
(2010-08-04)In this chapter, indexes of the Intra-Americas or Caribbean Low-Level Jet (IALLJ or CLLJ, respectively), Niño 3, Tropical North Atlantic (NATL), Atlantic Multidecadal Oscillation (AMO), and Outgoing Long Wave Radiation ... -
