World to Become Drier with Global Warming of 2 degree C

Over a quarter of the world's land could become significantly drier even if global warming is limited to the target of 2 degree C, according to scientists. The change would cause an increased threat of drought and wildfires. However, limiting global warming to under 1.5 degree C would dramatically reduce the fraction of the Earth's surface that undergoes such changes. Researchers from University of East Anglia in the UK and Southern University of Science and Technology (SUSTech) in China studied projections from 27 global climate models. They identified the areas of the world where aridity will substantially change when compared to the year-to-year variations they experience now, as global warming reaches 1.5 or 2 degree C above pre-industrial levels.
