1 Climate Change at Frontenac Arch Biosphere Reserve: Preliminary Results Adam Fenech Climate University of Toronto August 28, 2010
2 Special Considerations Data used is from Canada s National Climate Data and Information Archive Data is QA/QC d but not homogenized (not the Adjusted Historical Canadian Climate Data) Archive sometimes removes very extreme values inadvertently Page 2
3 Rapid Assessment of the Impacts of Climate Change (RAICC) Step 1 Build History of Climate Extremes Observational Data Step 3 Build Future of Climate Extremes Model Output Step 4 Climate Change Environmental Predictions 10 eco-sectors Step 2 Evaluate and Select Climate Model Step 5 Relative Risk Assessment Impacts of Climate Change Page 3

20 Looking Into the Future Page 20
21 Emission Scenarios Future climate cannot be predicted because future greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions unknown 3 primary GHG indicators Human population Global economy type Energy type Page 21
22 Emission Scenarios A1 - The A1 scenarios are of a more integrated world. The A1 family of scenarios is characterized by:rapid economic growth; a global population that reaches 9 billion in 2050 and then gradually declines; the quick spread of new and efficient technologies; a convergent world income and way of life converge between regions; and extensive social and cultural interactions worldwide. There are subsets to the A1 family based on their technological emphasis: A1FI - an emphasis on fossil-fuels; A1B - A balanced emphasis on all energy sources; and A1T - emphasis on non-fossil energy sources. A2 - The A2 scenarios are of a more divided world. The A2 family of scenarios is characterized by:a world of independently operating, self-reliant nations; continuously increasing population; regionally oriented economic development; and slower and more fragmented technological changes and improvements to per capita income. B1 - The B1 scenarios are of a world more integrated, and more ecologically friendly. The B1 scenarios are characterized by: rapid economic growth as in A1, but with rapid changes towards a service and information economy; population rising to 9 billion in 2050 and then declining as in A1; reductions in material intensity and the introduction of clean and resource efficient technologies; and an emphasis on global solutions to economic, social and environmental stability.
