An area-averaged annual mean increase in precipitation of 3±1% in the 2020s, 7±2% in the 2050s, and 11±3% in the 2080s over the land regions of Asia is projected as a result of future increases in the atmospheric concentration of GHGs.
Under the combined influence of GHGs and sulfate aerosols, the projected increase in precipitation is limited to 2±1% in the decade 2020s, 3±1% in the 2050s, and 7±3% in the 2080s.

 Climate Change 2001: Impacts, Adaptation and Vulnerability
These tables summarize projected seasonal mean changes in surface air temperature and precipitation during the 2050s and 2080s.
It is evident that even though aerosol forcing marginally reduces surface warming, the magnitude of projected warming is still considerable and could substantially impact the small island states.
With respect to diurnal changes, GCM simulations with increasing concentrations of GHGs in the atmosphere suggest relatively more pronounced increases in minimum temperature than in maximum temperature over the regions where the small island states are located, on an annual mean basis as well as during winter, for both the 2050s and the 2080s.

 Climate Change 2001: Impacts, Adaptation and Vulnerability
An area-averaged annual mean increase in precipitation of approximately 0.3% for the 2050s and 0.7% for the 2080s over the Pacific Ocean area is projected, either as a consequence of increases in atmospheric concentrations of GHGs or because of the combined influence of GHGs and sulfate aerosols.
An analysis of model-simulated daily temperature and precipitation data (from CSIRO and ECHAM model experiments) for the present-day atmosphere and for the two future time slices (2050s and 2080s) projects that the frequency of extreme temperatures during the summer is likely to be higher in all four regions.
GCMs currently project an increase in SSTs of approximately 1°C by the 2050s and increased rainfall intensity in the central equatorial Pacific, which would impact many small island states in that region.

For example, heat waves that have historically occurred on averagethree times per year are projected to roughly double in frequency by the 2050s and become two to five times more common by the 2090s.
The annual number of heat-related deaths is projected to increase an average of about 60 to 180 percent by the 2050s and 130 to more than 500 percent by the end of the century in four of the five cities analyzed.
On average, mortality estimates for the higher-emissions scenario are on the order of 10 to 100 percent higher than estimates for the lower-emissions scenario during the 2050s and about 100 to 150 percent higher during the 2090s.

For the 2050s, increases in winter temperature relative to the 1961-90 baseline lie in the range 1 1/2 to 4 degrees Celsius with winter precipitation increases on the order of 5 to 25%.
Increases would be 12-20% in the 2020s, 24-38% in the 2050s, and 40-61% in the 2080s.
This may be contrasted with the increases in use associated with population projections alone, which range from 54 to 265% between 2001 and the 2050s.

Global mean sea-level rise by the 2050s is predicted to be 21 cm.
Recent estimates are that 21% of the world s population live within 30 km of the coast, and these populations are growing at twice the global trend, so increases in flood risk could have significant human impacts.
With evolving coastal protection and no sea-level rise, the number of people at risk amounts to some 27 million people by the 2050s; when the effects of sea-level rise are included, this rises to 50 million people, i.e.

 Forest Research - Climate change - Impacts on UK forests - Impacts on the distribution of plant species found in native ...
The observed distribution of beech woodland is wider than predicted using the SPECIES model as a result of planting outside its natural range, which may be limited in Britain due to its relatively recent introduction; the model was trained on the European distribution, which essentially reflects its spread during the Holocene.
The SPECIES model predicts that climate change is likely to result in climate space for beech disappearing in south and east England by the 2050s, but suitable conditions developing in northern England and east and west Scotland.
The lack of predicted direct effects of climate change on climate space does not mean that there will be no changes to natural vegetation communities; indirect effects acting through changing competition are likely to have impacts on the overstorey and understorey alike.

 Climate Change 2001: Impacts, Adaptation and Vulnerability
Climate change scenarios that are based on an ensemble of results as inferred from skilled AOGCMs for Asia and its subregions on annual and seasonal mean basis are presented in Table 11-2.
Three future time periods centered around the 2020s (2010-2029), the 2050s (2040-2069), and the 2080s (2070-2099) have been considered here for developing scenarios of changes in surface air temperature and precipitation relative to the baseline period of 1961-1990.
The projected area-averaged annual mean warming is 1.6±0.2°C in the 2020s, 3.1±0.3°C in the 2050s, and 4.6±0.4°C in the 2080s over land regions of Asia as a result of increases in the atmospheric concentration of GHGs.

 Forest Research - Modelling future species suitability
Changes to species’ suitability are assessed for the full range of climate change scenarios (Low and High emissions), but only for the 2050s because the climate data fall outside the parameter range of the knowledge-based models beyond this timeframe.
These are predictions are for the 2050s, under both the Low and High emissions scenarios.
However, these predictions are only for the 2050s, and beyond this timeframe, the implications for tree growth are far more significant.

Annual, winter and summer precipitation for the Scotland and Scottish Borders grid boxes are reported for the 2020s, the 2050s and the 2080s using four contrasting climatic scenarios.
Since this work was undertaken in the mid 1990s there have been significant advances in modelling future UK climates incorporating new scenarios and providing improved spatial and temporal resolution for predicted outputs (Hulme and Jenkins, 1998) and the rainfall-runoff model has been calibrated for new Scottish river basins under new scenarios for three time periods.
