Climate change scenarios generated by using GCM outputs and statistical downscaling in an arid region
Two statistical downscaling models, the non-homogeneous hidden Markov model (NHMM) and the Statistical Down–Scaling Model (SDSM) were used to generate future scenarios of both mean and extremes in the Tarim River basin,which were based on nine combined scenarios including three general circulation models (GCMs) (CSIRO30, ECHAM5,and GFDL21) predictor sets and three special report on emission sce...
متن کاملEvaluating the utility of dynamical downscaling in agricultural impacts projections.
Interest in estimating the potential socioeconomic costs of climate change has led to the increasing use of dynamical downscaling--nested modeling in which regional climate models (RCMs) are driven with general circulation model (GCM) output--to produce fine-spatial-scale climate projections for impacts assessments. We evaluate here whether this computationally intensive approach significantly ...
متن کاملStatistical downscaling of climate change impacts on ozone concentrations in California
[1] The statistical relationship between the daily 1-hour maximum ozone (O3) concentrations and the daily maximum upper air temperature was explored for California’s two most heavily polluted air basins: the South Coast Air Basin (SoCAB) and the San Joaquin Valley Air Basin (SJVAB). A coarse-scale analysis of the temperature at an elevation of 850-mbar pressure (T850) for the period 1980–2004 w...
متن کاملAn Evaluation of Statistical and Dynamical Techniques for Downscaling Local Climate
An assessment is made of downscaling estimates of screen temperature and precipitation observed at 976 European stations during 1983–94. A statistical downscaling technique, in which local values are inferred from observed atmospheric predictor variables, is compared against two dynamical downscaling techniques, based on the use of the screen temperature or precipitation simulated at the neares...
متن کاملGeneralization of a statistical downscaling model to provide local climate change projections for Australia
Climate change information required for impact studies is of a much finer spatial scale than climate models can directly provide. Statistical downscaling models (SDMs) are commonly used to fill this scale gap. SDMs are based on the view that the regional climate is conditioned by two factors: (1) the largescale climatic state and (2) local physiographic features. An SDM based on an analogue app...
