Prepared for the 2013 National Climate Assessment and a landmark
study in terms of its breadth and depth of coverage, Climate of the
Southeast United States is the result of a collaboration among
three Regional Integrated Sciences and Assessments Centers: the
Southeast Climate Consortium; the Carolinas Regional Sciences and
Assessments; and the Southern Climate Impacts Planning Program;
with contributions from numerous local, state, federal, and
nongovernmental agencies to develop a comprehensive, state of the
art look at the effects of climate change in the region. The book
summarizes the scientific literature with respect to climate
impacts on the Southeast United States, including 11 southern
states to the east of the Mississippi River, Puerto Rico, and the
US Virgin Islands; reviews the historic climate, current climate,
and the projected future climate of the region; and describes
interactions with important sectors of the Southeast and
cross-sectoral issues, namely climate change mitigation,
adaptation, and education and outreach. Rich in science and case
studies, it examines the latest climate change impacts, scenarios,
vulnerabilities, and adaptive capacity and offers decision makers
and stakeholders a substantial basis from which to make informed
choices that will affect the well-being of the region's inhabitants
in the decades to come.
