The fundamental scientific motivation of the North American Regional Climate Change Assessment Program (NARCCAP) is to explore the separate and combined uncertainties in regional projections of future climate change resulting from the use of multiple Atmosphere-Ocean General Circulation Models (AOGCMs) in driving multiple regional climate models (RCMs).
