Abstract
Prepared for the 2013 National Climate Assessment and a landmark study in terms of its breadth and depth of coverage, Climate of the Southeast United States is the result of a collaboration among three Regional Integrated Sciences and Assessments Centers: the Southeast Climate Consortium; the Carolinas Regional Sciences and Assessments and the Southern Climate Impacts Planning Program; with contributions from numerous local, state, federal and nongovernmental agencies to develop a comprehensive, state of the art look at the effects of climate change in the region.
