RegCM 4.4 is effectively used for downscaling the MIROC5 global climate model output, used for simulations and projecting the climate for Tamil Nadu under Representative Concentration Pathways (RCPs) 4.5 and 8.5 scenarios. On the basis of the MIROC5 model scenarios, the maximum temperature, minimum temperatures and rainfall are projected. The increase in maximum temperature is projected to be 1.0ˇăC for RCP 4.5 and RCP 8.5 respectively during 2021to 2030. The minimum temperature is expected to increase about 1.1ˇăC for RCP4.5 and RCP 8.5 respectively. Rainfall deviation would be 4.2 percent and 6.6 percent for RCP 4.5 and RCP 8.5 from base period %U https://bioinfopublication.org/viewhtml.php?artid=BIA0005042
