Near-term Climate Change: Projections and Predictability

Abstract: Box 11.1 (continued) Box 11.1, Figure 2 | A schematic illustrating the progression from an initial-value based prediction at short time scales to the forced boundary-value problem of climate projection at long time scales. Decadal prediction occupies the middle ground between the two. (Based on Meehl et al., 2009b.)

“…Thus there will be both favorable and unfavorable factors for haze occurrences in the near future based on the model projections. However, there is no doubt that, with the projected sea ice extent decrease (Kirtman et al, 2013), weakening of the winter East Asian monsoon wind ) and total energy consumption increase, the haze pollution in eastern China may continue to be a serious problem in the near future. There is already a series of governmental plans to address the air pollution issues in Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei area and Yangtze River Delta as well as the Pearl River Delta even though the future climate change is not favorable to the air pollution reduction.…”

“…With climate change being one of the most severe challenges to rural Africa in the 21st century, West Africa is facing an urgent need to develop effective adaptation and mitigation measures to protect its constantly growing population (Neumann et al, 2007;Naab et al, 2012;Eguavoen, 2013;Kirtman et al, 2013;Niang et al, 2014). The West African Science Service Center on Climate Change and Adapted Land Use (WASCAL) is a large-scale research-focused program designed to help tackle this challenge and thereby enhance the resilience of human and environmental systems to climate change and increasing variability.…”
