Figure 3 Change in monthly temperature (A) and precipitation (B) over the year in the time slices<br />
compared to mean monthly values of the baseline 1990 (time slices are 30 year averages: time slice<br />
1990 is an average over period 1961 – 1990, time slices 2020 is an average over period 1991 - 2020,<br />
time slice 2050 over period 2021 – 2050, and time slice 2080 over period 2051 – 2080). The curves<br />
represent the range of results in four climate models <strong>for</strong> each of the 4 SRES emission scenarios (A1f<br />
red, A2 yellow, B1 blue , B2 green). The range is depicted by the minimum and maximum value from<br />
projections with the four general circulation models per SRES scenario (Data from Mitchell et al. 2004).
