Service Description: The goal of the Integrated Scenarios of the Future Northwest Environment project (P.Mote, lead PI) was to use the latest global climate models from CMIP5, and state of the science models of vegetation and hydrology, to describe as accurately as possible what the latest science says about the Northwest?s future climate, vegetation, and hydrology. Researchers in the project started by first evaluating the ability of CMIP5 models to simulate observed climate patterns in the Northwest region (Rupp et al. 2013). The researchers then used the best performing models to project likely future changes to Northwest?s climate, hydrology, and vegetation.
