- Economists help climate scientists to improve global warming forecasts
01-21-2008 · EurekAlert!
Climate scientists are collaborating with experts in economic theory to improve their forecasting models and assess more accurately the impact of rising atmospheric carbon dioxide levels. Although there is broad consensus that there will be a significant rise in average global temperature, there is great uncertainty over the extent of the change, and the implications for different regions.

- New study increases concerns about climate model reliability
12-11-2007 · EurekAlert!
A new study comparing the composite output of 22 leading global climate models with actual climate data finds that the models do an unsatisfactory job of mimicking climate change in key portions of the atmosphere. This research, published online Wednesday in the Royal Meteorological Society's International Journal of Climatology, raises new concerns about the reliability of models used to forecast global warming.

- Rising Temperatures Will Lead To Loss Of Trout Habitat In Southern Appalachians
10-05-2006 · ScienceDaily
USDA Forest Service research projects that between 53 and 97 percent of natural trout populations in the southern Appalachians could disappear due to the warmer temperatures predicted under two different global climate circulation models. In an article published Oct. 2 in the online version of the Transactions of the American Fisheries Society, Patricia Flebbe, research biologist at the FS Southern Research Station unit in Blacksburg, Va., maps out trout habitat in a future, warmer climate.
