There is a concrete need for climate change information that is relevant for specific sites and sectorial uses by policy-makers and practitioners. It is also clear, that downscaling may be a useful technique for this, not least in areas with marked topographic features. Due to systematic biases in (all) climate models, bias corrections may still be needed. Research on such has increased over the past few years not least among the climate change impact study community, where the so-called “delta-change” method has for a quite a long time being used to a large extent.
