Weather data with climate change scenarios

Climate change is one of the biggest challenges facing mankind. Buildings and their services will be affected. CIBSE TM34: Weather data with climate change scenarios gives some data to help engineers assess the affects. However, there are a number of IPCC scenarios suggesting how greenhouse gases will change in the future which are used with climate models. Hence there is a range of temperature increases from the models. One model, from the Hadley Centre of the Met Office, has been used to generate the data presented in this TM, and the general results of the model have been detailed by UKCIP in its recent publications. So the engineer has to bear in mind the range when using the data presented in TM34. --
