| North American Regional Climate Change Assessment Program |
| Welcome to NARCCAP! |
NARCCAP is an international program that serves the high resolution
climate scenario needs of the United States, Canada, and northern
Mexico, using regional climate model, coupled global climate model,
and time-slice experiments. NARCCAP users include those interested in regional analysis, impacts studies, and further downscaling. User resources. NARCCAP data is stored in CF-compliant NetCDF format and distributed through the Earth System Grid. Data access and documentation. 4th Users Workshop and Data Tutorial — Presentations and materials from the 4th Users' Workshop are now available. We also have a video of the introductory data tutorial webcast on April 12, 2012. Scatterplots and Climate Change Maps — We have updated the Seasonal Climate Change Maps page to cover all ten of the completed RCM-GCM pairings, including the newly-published HRM3-GFDL run. We also have created Scatter Plots that compare the regional climate change results for each of the Bukovsky regions. Bukovsky Regions — NARCCAP scientist Melissa Bukovsky has developed a regionalization of the simulation domain, which we will be using for regional analysis of results. Descriptions, maps, and mask files are available here. Coming Soon
