The model uses an ensemble of downscaled general circulation models, representative for the complete set of climate change projections in the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 5 (CMIP5) multi-model archive, related to the IGB region. It does not include future changes in sea level rise.application/pdfenGLOBAL WARMINGSEMI-ARID REGIONSEXTREME WEATHERGREENHOUSE GASESCLIMATOLOGYCLIMATE CHANGE VULNERABILITYMATHEMATICAL MODELSSIMULATIONRIVER BASINSINDUS, GANGES, AND BRAHMAPUTRA (IGB)INDIASOUTH ASIAJournal Article (peer-reviewed)
