Global Annual Temperature Scenario: 2100

A simulation of projected changes in annual mean temperatures from the period 1975 to 1995 to the period ...

Abstract

A simulation of projected changes in annual mean temperatures from the period 1975 to 1995 to the period 2080 to 2100 is presented here. Geographically, the temperature changes would not be evenly distributed. According to this projection, the Arctic would experience the greatest annual mean warming followed by other areas in northern Canada and central and northern Asia. Temperatures generally increase as the century progresses as a consequence of the projected increase in greenhouse gas concentrations in the atmosphere. The results are based on climate change simulations made with the Coupled Global Climate Model developed by Environment Canada.
