Abstract
A regional climate model (RegCM4) was used to project the potential evapotranspiration (PET) of Egypt under two future scenarios: RCP45 and RCP85. Spatially, the RegCM4 has a higher PET under the RCP85 than the RCP45. Among all locations, the RegCM4 was able to capture the monthly variability in PET with respect to the Climate Research Unit (CRU). In addition, the simulated PET was notably improved when a linear regression model (LRM) was used. Further, future PET projects a strong increased trend under the RCP85; meanwhile, future PET projects a weak increased trend under the RCP45.
