as some of you may know, i broke the stories about drought and farmland... well here's a bit more on that, related to this thread: [ link to www.giss.nasa.gov] Early in the century, irrigation is primarily localized over Southern and Eastern Asia, leading to significant cooling in boreal summer (June-August) over these regions. This cooling spreads and intensifies by century's end, following the rapid expansion of irrigation over North America, Europe, and Asia. Irrigation also leads to boreal winter (December-February) warming over parts of North America and Asia in the latter part of the century, due to enhanced downward longwave fluxes from increased near surface humidity. Precipitation increases occur primarily downwind of the major irrigation areas, although precipitation in parts of India decreases due to a weaker summer monsoon. WTF?
