Predicting NCAR Climate Change Data Using GIS Techniques

Dr. Md. Aminuzzaman

Abstract: The present paper is an attempt to study the predicting NCAR climate change data using Geographic Information System (GIS) techniques. For this study used climate datasets generated by the Community Climate System Model (CCSM) for the Intergovernmental Panel for Climate Change (IPCC) 4th Assessment Report and distributed through the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) GIS Initiative Climate Change Scenarios portal in a GIS format. From this is study it was found that GIS is a time effective tool for analyzing large scale climatic data and it can easily identify the locations where the effect of climate change will be maximum in future.
