Effects of land cover change on temperature and rainfall extremes in multi-model ensemble simulations

The impact of historical land use induced land cover change (LULCC) on regional-scale climate extremes is examined using four climate models within the Land Use and Climate, IDentification of robust impacts project. To assess those impacts, multiple indices based on daily maximum and minimum tempera...
