Tuesday, 9th November 2021
The event will focus on the most recent regional climate information for the North and Central America region based on the latest IPCC WGI AR6 relevant for impact and risk assessment. The climatic impact-drivers (CIDs) framework will be introduced and future projection of the most relevant CIDs, with their past trend observations and attribution will be highlighted for each of the 8 AR6 subregions of North and Central America. The events will be enriched by examples of CID projections at several global warming levels (1.5oC, 2oC and 4oC) illustrated by mean of the Interactive Atlas facility. The plenary discussion will be followed by a Q&A session in separated breakout rooms where specific topic in different languages will be discussed with the participants.
