3.  Climate projections are performing on the basis of three extreme emission scenarios  A2 scenarios - High  A1B scenarios – Moderate  B2 scenarios – Low (on going)  Two GCMs are-  HadCM3, CGCM3

5. Applicable to: Sub-grid scales (small islands, point processes) Complex/ heterogeneous environments Extreme events

6.  Predictands (to predict)  1. Maximum air temperature. 2. Minimum air temperature. 3. Precipitation  Predictors (26 variables such as-MSL, RH, WIND, HEGIHT, TEMPERATURE  at different atmospheric levels Tools used for statistical downscaling

7. Following procedure are performed during downscaling:  Check Quality of the data ◦ Screening of predictor variable ◦ Screening of predictor variable.  Calibration and validation of GCM with station data  Synthesis of observed data using weather generator  Generation of Climate change scenario using calibration parameters

13. Maximum Temperature Projections considering A2 and A1B Scenarios Maximum Increase in monsoon period Maximum Increase in pre monsoon period

16. Temperature Change :  Temperature will increase gradually in the future period.  Rate of Temperature change is greater for A2 than A1B.

17. Precipitation change:  For A2 scenario mean precipitation will increase in overall period of the year. Consecutive dry day will increase in monsoon and pre monsoon period, that denotes that rainfall intensity or rainfall duration may increase for that period.  For A1B scenario mean precipitation will increase in monsoon and pre-monsoon period.

19. Maximum Increase of in monsoon period Maximum Increase in Pre monsoon period Maximum Temperature Projections considering A2 and A1B Scenarios

20. Precipitation Projections considering HadCM3 A2 Scenarios

21. Precipitation Projections considering A1B Scenarios

22. Precipitation Change :  For A2 scenario mean precipitation will increase in pre-monsoon, post monsoon and monsoon period.  For the case of A1B scenario it is observed that mean precipitation will increase in pre-monsoon, post monsoon and monsoon period. Precipitation of the year will be delayed about one month during monsoon

24. Maximum Temperature Projections considering A2 and A1B Scenarios

25. Precipitation Projections considering HadCM3 A2 Scenarios

26. Precipitation Projections considering CGCM3 A1B Scenarios

27. Precipitation change:  For A2 scenario mean precipitation will increase in monsoon period consecutive wet day will decrease that denotes rainfall intensity will increase. Decrease of precipitation in post monsoon season.  In A1B scenario mean precipitation will decrease in pre monsoon and monsoon period.
