Climate Change Scenarios Exercise

• Aim
• To explore different climate change scenarios
  methods and tools
• Method
• Define your region of interest
• Choose your climate parameter
• Choose tool or tools or models outputs
• Assess anomalies for current climate conditions
• Consider emission scenarios or concentration
  pathways
• Develop future climate scenarios, projections at
  different time horizon (2030, 2050 and 2100)
• Examine issues of
• GCM, RCM or statistical methods
• Stationnarity
• Resolution (higher vs coarse)
• Trends and variability.
• How does one address the main gaps (data, tools,
  ) in respect to available means and work to
  undertake when looking at climate change
  scenarios?
