Climate Change Scenarios. 4th IPCC Report. Andalusia

Project carried out by the Ministry of the Environment with which a methodology has been developed that allows to know the impacts of Climate Change at local level. The results consist of several Raster (200 m resolution) of different climatic and bioclimatic variables, potential distribution raster of forest species and raster and vector layer of bioclimatic classification calculated all of them for different climatic periods: 1961-2000 (reference), 2011-2040, 2041-2070 and 2071-2099, different models (CLIMA Subsystem, ERA40, CNM3, EGMAM, ECHAM, BCM2) and different climate change scenarios (A1b, A2 and B1). Climate variables: — Maximum temperature, minimum temperature and average, monthly and annual temperature, average temperature of the warmest and most average month of the coldest month, minimum and maximum of the minimum and maximum temperatures respectively, and the corresponding thermal oscillations — Precipitation precipitation, monthly, annual and seasonal. — Reference evapotranspiration and monthly and anua solar radiation — Monthly and annual snow rush — Number of cold days per year — Number of heat days per year — Climate comfort (Actual Sensation Vote) and relative humidity monthly and annual Variablesbioclimatic: water balance, availability of time for primary production, real evapotranspiration, aridity index, continentality index, water indices, annual and monthly ombrothermal index, drought index, thermocity index, compensated thermocity index, sum of deficits, sum of surpluses, positive temperature and Raster thermotype and vector polygons of the bioclimatic classification of Andalusia. Potential distribution of 12 forest species (Abies pinsapo, Castanea sativa, Ceratonia siliqua Eucalyptus sp., Olea europea subsp sylvestris, Pinus halepensis, Pinus pinea, Pinus nigra, Pinus pinaster, Pinus syvestris, Quercus Ilex subsp. Ballota, Quercus suber)
