Abstract. To allow for climate impact studies on human and natural systems, high-resolution information is needed. Over some parts of the world plenty regional simulations have been carried out, while in other regions hardly any available. The CORDEX Central Asia domain one these regions, this article describes evaluation two models (RCMs), REMO ALARO-0, that were run first time at a horizontal...

The aim of this work is to present preliminary results the statistical and dynamical simulations carried out within framework Flagship Pilot Study in southeastern South America (FPS-SESA) endorsed by Coordinated Regional Climate Downscaling Experiments (CORDEX) program. FPS-SESA initiative seeks promote inter-institutional collaboration further networking with focus on extreme rainfall events. ...

Abstract The Arctic Coordinated Regional Downscaling Experiment (Arctic-CORDEX) uses regional climate models (RCMs) to downscale selected Fifth Coupled Model Intercomparison Project simulations, allowing trend validation and projection on subregional scales. For 1986–2015, the CORDEX seasonal-average near-surface temperature ( tas ), wind speed sfcWind precipitation pr ) snowfall prsn trends ar...

Abstract Wind energy is an important pillar of decarbonization strategies and potentially vulnerable to climate change. Existing wind change assessments rely on models but a systematic investigation the global-to-regional modeling chain missing. In this study, I highlight key limitations, namely (a) differing representation land use in global regional which compromises comparability, (b) consis...

Abstract. In the last decade, Climate Limited-area Modeling Community (CLM-Community) has contributed to Coordinated Regional Downscaling Experiment (CORDEX) with an extensive set of regional climate simulations. Using several versions COSMO-CLM-Community model, ERA-Interim reanalysis and eight global models from phase 5 Coupled Model Intercomparison Project (CMIP5) were dynamically downscaled ...
