Projection of regional climate change over China from PRECIS under SRES A1B
PRECIS is employed to simulate the climate under SRES A1B over China from 1961 to 2100,driven by the output from coupled ocean-atmosphere general circulation model HadCM3 under SRES A1B.With the projected data,the change of precipitation and temperature over China is investigated.It is indicated that:1.The precipitation and temperature over China show an overall upward trend in future,and as for the magnitude of temperature's increase,the daily minimum/maximum temperature has a largest/smallest increase respectively.2.The precipitation and temperature show a maximum increase pace from 2020 s (2011-2040) to 2050 s (2041-2070) in all-time.3.The upward trend of precipitation is character of territorial.4.Temperature will increase for all areas and all periods in future,especially in Xinjiang and Northeast China,the increase magnitude is the largest.
