Climate change takes place on many time scales, and both natural and anthropogenic factors are seen to be at work. This webinar will examine the decade-scale and longer-term variability of temperature and precipitation in Texas, using a stable network of climate stations. The data will be compared to climate change projections based on a single anthropogenic factor: greenhouse gases. The outlook for future precipitation is unclear, but temperatures (and resulting drought stress) are likely to increase dramatically over the next several decades.
