1ST Latin American and the Caribbean Regional Workshop Assessment for Impacts and Adaptation to Climate Change in Multiple Regions and Sectors (AIACC)
San José 27-30 June 2003
Climate Scenarios for Regional applications, selected cases of Latin America
Abel Centella
Institute of Meteorology
La Habana, Cuba
Experiences from First National Communication Experiences from First National Communication process in some countries in LA regionprocess in some countries in LA region
Countries: Cuba, El Salvador, Guatemala, Panamá, Haití, Saint Kitts & Nevis, Dominican Republic, Paraguay
National Communication Process:
• V&A is one of the issues
• Lack of time for research
• Previous experiences
• Building Capacity
The Work was oriented toThe Work was oriented to
1. Develop a climate base line for each country (grided climate data)
2. Understand the climate change issue
3. The art of climate change scenario development
4. The use of climate changes scenario results

Selecting GCM
Criteria for selection:
• Representation of current climate
• Grid resolution
• Model vintage
• Different projections
Climate projections from different GCMs combined with different GHG scenarios and Climate Sensibilities
THE UNCERTAINTY SPACE
• Emissions
• Climate sensitivity
• GCM regional outputs Which CC scenario we can select?

SOME LESSONS
1. Develop an uncertainty analysis approach
2. Downscaling must be incorporate (e.g High Resolution Regional Model)
3. Individual (country) experiences must be integrated in future work
Unfortunally, a regional proposal for CA & the Caribbean did not classify for the AIACC Grant
