Any study forecasting conditions four decades
hence will be faced with large uncertainties and
these need to be borne in mind in interpreting the
results of this study. One uncertainty concerns
the pathway of GHG emissions. To address that
issue, the city case studies examined both a high
and a low GHG emissions scenario to bracket the
likely future conditions. In the climate change
downscaling methodologies, there are uncertain-
ties in forecasting the increase in extreme and
seasonal precipitation under the different sce-
narios. The techniques applied in the statistical
downscaling examined the results from sixteen
atmosphere-ocean general circulation models
(AOGCM). Robust...
