Description: This paper provides an initial exploration of this hypothesis through first identifying the dominant daily circulation patterns over North America using an objective cluster analysis on ERA-40 reanalysis of 500 millibar (mb), 700 mb, and 850 mb geopotential height and temperature fields. Next, we evaluate the extent to which these upper-air patterns can be correlated with surface-level oppressive air mass events associated with elevated levels of heatrelated mortality in major California urban centers.

Title: Estimating the Potential Economic Impacts of Climate Change on Southern California Beaches-Draft Paper

URL: http://www.energy.ca.gov/2009publications/CEC-500-2009-033/CEC-500-2009-033-D.PDF

Description: Climate change could substantially alter the width of beaches in Southern California. Climatedriven sea level rise will have at least two important impacts on beaches: (1) higher sea level will cause all beaches to become more narrow, all things being held constant, and (2) sea level rise may affect patterns of beach erosion and accretion when severe storms combine with higher high tides. To understand the potential economic impacts of these two outcomes, this study examined the physical and economic effects of permanent beach loss caused by inundation due to sea level rise of one meter and of erosion and accretion caused by a single, extremely stormy year (using a model of beach change based on the wave climate conditions of the El Niño year of 1982/1983.)

Description: For this study, daily data were collected for mortality and weather in seven California counties known to be affected by the July 2006 heat wave. The association between apparent temperature and daily mortality was assessed using a Poisson regression model and combined across counties in a meta-analysis.This multi-county analysis provides additional evidence that the risk of mortality increases with prolonged exposure to high apparent temperatures, as is common during a heat wave.

Description: This research measured the economic effects of climate-related yield change in California crops. The overall conclusion from model runs is that, while the effect of climate change is manifest through yield changes, after economic adaptation, the results on irrigated crop production are predominately shown in economic terms and changes in aggregate land and water use.

Results show a significant increase in wildfires, especially under higher emissions (SRES A2) with statewide increases ranging from 57% to 169% by 2085. The spatial patterns of increased fire occurrence vary based on the speed of vegetation shifts, with coastal areas and Northern California showing higher increases in fire area burned.

URL: http://www.energy.ca.gov/2009publications/CEC-500-2009-047/CEC-500-2009-047-D.PDF

Description: Climate change will have profound effects on the distribution, function, and productivity of California’s forests. To provide managers with the means to anticipate likely forest responses to climate change, we initiated the development of a climate-sensitive growth and yield model for the mixed conifer forests of the Sierra Nevada (WS CalClim 1.0). WS CalClim 1.0 was built using the logic and architecture of the WESSIN variant (WS) of the Forest Vegetation Simulator. Our initial focus was on designing and testing a model of ponderosa pine productivity.

Description: Simulation models are used here to weigh competing influences that might either increase or diminish future floods. Future characteristics of major storms, in particular pineapple express or atmospheric river storms, by global climate models indicated changes mostly at the extremes. Likewise, although the average intensity of storms was not projected to increase much in most climate models, occasional much-larger-than-historical-range storm intensities were simulated.

In 2000, California faced electricity supply challenges, leading Governor Davis to set a goal of reducing peak demand by 5,000 megawatts in 2001. The conservation campaign exceeded expectations, achieving a 5,570 megawatt reduction by June 2001. Overall electricity consumption dropped by 6.7%, with a record 14% reduction during peak hours.
