PartⅣ (2) Impacts of Land-use Change on Climate in China Land-use changes a lot in China for its long agriculture history and present big population pressure PartⅣ Landuse Change in China ▼: tree →shrub ▲: tree → irrigated crop farming ●: semi desert → desert ■: tree → crop/mixed farming ◆: grass→ rop/mixed farming Areas of no change: 2: short grass 3: evergreen needleleaf tree 5: deciduous broadleaf tree 6: evergreen broadleaf tree 7: tall grass 8: desert PartⅣ Experiment Design: 5 year RegCM2 run driven by 5 year CTL run of AOGCM Exp 1. With potential vegetation cover Exp 2. With present vegetation cover Exp2-Exp1, was thought as the impact of landuse change on climate Plotted and analysed in 160 station positions PartⅣ Change of Annual mean Ts (℃) ●:-1.5~0 ■:0~1.5 PartⅣ Change of Annual mean Pr (%) ■:<-20% :-20%~0 ■ :0~20% ● ●:>20% Dotted spots are stations with change passed 90% t - test, same as below PartⅣ Change of Summer Tmax (℃) ●:-2.4~0 ■:0~2.4 ■:2.5~4.4 ◆:>4.5 PartⅣ Change of Winter Tmin (℃) ●:<-2.4 ●:-2.4~0 ■:0~2.4 ■:>2.5 PartⅣ Change of Annual mean Soil moisture (%) ■:-20~0 ●:0 ~ 20 PartⅣ Conclusions : Current Landuse in China, may caused: • • • • • Less rainfall in NW; Temperatures increasing is in Sichuan basin and part of NW area; Increasing of summer Tmax in many places, Increasing of winter Tmin in NW; Decrease of Soil moisture in many places, including western of China; Same landuse can cause different climate effect, depends on the geography character in the area. Part III Next step work • Using dynamical downscaling is going to coutinue simulate various episodes in 21st Century with the regional climate model with the boundary conditions provided by the global model. • To apply the simulation results of the global and regional climate models into a hydrological model, to simulate the future hydrological cycle over the Western of China. • To provide the projected climate change simulations over the Northwestern China to the relative research groups for impacts and adaption.
