Abstract: <p>This thesis proposes an agro-ecological zoning (AEZ) methodology of southern Ontario for the characterization and mapping of agro-ecological zones during the historical term (1981-2010), and their shifts into the long-term (2041-2070) projected climate period. Agro-ecological zones are homogenous areas with a unique combination of climate, soil, and landscape features that are important… more Full Text: The Agro-Ecological Zoning (AEZ) of Southern Ontario and the Projected Shifts Caused by Climate Change in the Long-term Future A Thesis Submitted to the Committee on Graduate Studies in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of …

Abstract: <p>This thesis focuses on the design of a modelling framework consisting of loose-coupling of a sequence of spatial and process models and procedures necessary to predict future flood events for the years 2030 and 2050 in Tabasco Mexico. Temperature and precipitation data from the Hadley Centers Coupled Model (HadCM3), for those future years were downscaled using the Statistical Downscaling… more Full Text: ADAPT: AN AUTOMATED DECISION SUPPORT TOOL FOR ADAPTATION TO CLIMATE CHANGE-DRIVEN FLOODS PREDICTED FROM A MULTISCALE AND MULTI-MODEL FRAMEWORK Predicting flood extents in Tabasco Mexico A Thesis Submitted to the Committee on Graduate Studies in Partial …
