Yayın Projected future changes in extreme climate indices over Central Asia using RegCM4.3.5(MDPI, 2023-06) Öztürk, TuğbaThis work projected future extreme climate indices' changes over Central Asia (The Coordinated Regional Climate Downscaling Experiment-CORDEX Region 8). Changes were calculated for 2071-2100 relative to 1971-2000. Climate simulations were obtained by downscaling the RegCM4.3.5 to 50 km resolution under RCP4.5 and 8.5 with HadGEM2-ES and MPI-ESM-MR. The results indicate that the Central Asian domain will experience warmer and more extreme temperatures with increasing radiative forcing. The annual lowest value of minimum daily temperature was simulated to increase remarkably, up to 8 degrees, especially in high latitudes, with a more than 12 degree increase projected over Siberia. A strong growth in the percentage of warm nights and an increase in the days of warm spells for the whole region, with a decrease in cold spell duration, are anticipated. Model results show an expected reduction of up to 30% in precipitation totals over the domain, except for the increased precipitation over Siberia, the Himalayas, and Tibetan Plateau. Extreme precipitation events are projected to have an increase of 20% over the whole domain, with an 80% increase over high topographical areas.Yayın Projected changes in extreme temperature and precipitation indices over CORDEX-MENA domain(MDPI AG, 2021-05) Öztürk, Tuğba; Saygılı Aracı, Fatma Sibel; Kurnaz, Mehmet LeventIn this study, projected changes in climate extreme indices defined by the Expert Team on Climate Change Detection and Indices were investigated over Middle East and North Africa. Changes in the daily maximum and minimum temperature-and precipitation-based extreme indices were analyzed for the end of the 21st century compared to the reference period 1971–2000 using regional climate model simulations. Regional climate model, RegCM4.4 was used to downscale two different global climate model outputs to 50 km resolution under RCP4.5 and RCP8.5 scenarios. Results generally indicate an intensification of temperature-and precipitation-based extreme indices with increasing radiative forcing. In particular, an increase in annual minimum of daily minimum temperatures is more pronounced over the northern part of Mediterranean Basin and tropics. High increase in warm nights and warm spell duration all over the region with a pronounced increase in tropics are projected for the period of 2071–2100 together with decrease or no change in cold extremes. According to the results, a decrease in total wet-day precipitation and increase in dry spells are expected for the end of the century.
