abstract

In 2007, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) published its
fourth assessment reports summarizing recent global climate change and
projections for the next century. This article reviews the basics of climate
science and modeling, highlights the conclusions of the IPCC report, and
identifies the well-understood aspects of climate change that will be
important for California agriculture and society as a whole. Predicted
impacts to California include increased flooding and reduced water
availability, higher sea levels, worse air pollution and fewer chilling hours
for important crops.
