General Information

Distribution of the simulated change in annual mean precipitation (%) from the 14 (B1) or 15 (A2) CMIP3 models for the Northeast region. The lowest, 25th percentile, median, 75th percentile and highest values are given for the high (A2) and low (B1) emissions scenarios, and for each future time period (2021-2050, 2041-2070, and 2070-2099) with respect to the reference period of 1971-1999. Also shown are values from the distribution of 9 NARCCAP models for 2041-2070, A2 only, with respect to 1971-2000.
