Description:

This collection preserves access to hundreds of California state agency websites. State agencies utilize their websites to publish information including press releases, agendas, minutes, reports, statistics, and more. This material is especially volatile as leadership changes or as time sensitive issues are no longer on agendas or in the news. This collection is maintained by government information specialists from the California State Library.

Sites and collections from this organization are listed below. Narrow your results at left, or enter a search query below to find a collection, site, specific URL or to search the text of archived webpages.

Title: Current and Future Impacts of Extreme Events in California - Draft Paper

URL: http://www.energy.ca.gov/2009publications/CEC-500-2009-026/CEC-500-2009-026-D.PDF

Collection: Archive of the California Government Domain, CA.gov

Description: This study synthesized existing research to characterize current understanding of the direct impacts of extreme events across sectors, as well as the interactions between sectors as they are affected by extreme events. It also produced new projections of changes in the frequency and intensity of extreme events in the future across climate models, emissions scenarios, and downscaling methods for producing regional climate information, for each California county.

Title: Projections of Potential Flood Regime Changes In California-Draft Paper

URL: http://www.energy.ca.gov/2009publications/CEC-500-2009-050/CEC-500-2009-050-D.PDF

Collection: Archive of the California Government Domain, CA.gov

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.
