Fig. 1: Projected area-weighted subregional changes in seasonal precipitation (2070–2099 relative to 1985–2014).

From: Robust future intensification of winter precipitation over the United States

Fig. 1

Precipitation changes are shown for a December–January–February (DJF), b March–April–May (MAM), c June–July–August (JJA) and d September–October–November (SON). Bars are the EnsMean values, while the vertical line denotes the plus/minus one-time STD, which is based on the spread across models. Figures are computed as the percentage change in the regional weighted average (NW—Northwest, SW—Southwest, NGP—Northern Great Plains, SGP—Southern Great Plains, MW—Midwest, SE—Southeast, NE—Northeast, US—all of US) scaled to area-weighted mean surface air temperature changes (% K−1).
