Abstract: Simulations of future climate scenarios produced with a high-resolution climate model show markedly different trends in temperature and precipitation over the Pacific Northwest than in the global model in which it is nested, ...

Abstract: Virtually all numerical forecast models possess systematic biases. Although attempts to reduce such biases at individual stations using simple statistical corrections have met with some success, there is an acute need for ...

Abstract: esults from a regional climate model simulation show substantial increases in future flood risk (2040?69) in many Pacific Northwest river basins in the early fall. Two primary causes are identified: 1) more extreme and ...

Abstract: This paper examines the potential of regional environmental prediction by focusing on the local forecasting effort in the Pacific Northwest. A consortium of federal, state, and local agencies have funded the development ...
