ABSTRACT
Climate change refers to changes in climate stressors in the future, such as increases in temperature, precipitation, and extreme weather e.g. hurricane and flooding (Meyer et al. 2013). For flexible pavements, climate stressors such as temperature, precipitation, wind speed, solar radiation, and groundwater table can be influential to pavement performance and thus
changes in these stressors may result in changes of pavement performance and service lives. Previous research found that temperature is the most influential climate stressors (Qiao et al, 2013) and therefore downscaled future temperature was obtained to represent future climate and applied as an input for pavement responses.
