- Abstract
- <p>Climate patterns that can influence a building’s internal conditions and envelope longevity are projected to shift according to the Met Office Hadley centre climate models. To illustrate these patterns, the average daily maximum temperature(°C), cumulative annual precipitation (mm), and the average annual relative humidity (%) are mapped for each grid within each town or city, for the average year in the time period, and for the 50th and 95th percentile models out of the 12-model suite. Time periods are baseline (1980-2000), 2030 (2021-2040), and 2070 (2061-2080).</p> <p>Additional information is available here: <a
