UW-Climate Impact Group Climate Change Forecasts, Downscaled 7x7 km grid cell The scenarios represent a composite average of ten global climate models (GCM) for the western US using four bracketing scenarios based on four GCMs (ECHAM5, MIROC_3.2, HADGEM1, and PCM1). Predictions are for one greenhouse gas scenario (A1B, a middle of the road scenario for future emissions). Results are in percent change from historical ( ) to forecasts in Forecasts were obtained from University of Washington Climate Impacts Group. Climate Impacts Grou Predictions are in percent change from historical [ ] to forecasts in 2040, in deg C, [all changes positive], and note relatively small change Climate Change - Temperature

In sum, looks like air temp increases (stream temp increases) in the summer (also considering predicted summer flow) will be most important in the upper watersheds, where coho and steelhead might be at risk. In addition, higher winter flows (floods) are predicted to be most pronounced, again in the upper basin, so the upper to mid basin fisheries seem to be at risk, rather than the lower, coastal streams.
