Modelling climate change and aridity for climate impact studies in semi-arid regions: The case of Giba basin, northern Ethiopia by Atsbha Brhane Gebru, Tesfamichael Gebreyohannes, Gebrerufael Hailu Kahsay

“…Historical data (1961–2019) from seven meteorological stations and global grided data were used for future climate projections (2020–2100) under the three emission scenarios (RCPs 2.6, 4.5, and 8.5) for the three-time horizons (2040s, 2060s, and 2080s). Analysis of results showed that rainfall and temperature projection on a monthly and/or seasonal basis has more significance than on an annual basis for impact studies particularly, in areas where irrigation practices are common like in the Giba basin. …”
