Climate Change Impact Assessment
Spatial distribution of mean annual county-level extreme precipitation across the Gulf Coast of the United States for the period 1985 to 2014 based on an ensemble of 29 NASA Earth Exchange Global Daily Downscaled Projections (NEX-GDDP-CMIP6)
Delta P = (Projected P - Historical P)/Historical P * 100
Delta T = (Projected T - Historical T)
Projected Period = 2071 - 2100
Historical Period = 1985 - 2014
25th and 75th percentiles of Delta P and Delta T are used to categorize:Â
1) Hot and Wet
2) Cold and Wet
3) Hot and Dry
4) Cold and Dry
