Downscaling transient climate change with a stochastic weather generator for the Geer catchment, Belgium

peer reviewed ; The coarse resolution of climate models creates the need for future scenarios which are downscaled to an appropriate spatial scale. Considerable effort has been devoted to the development of downscaling methods but a number of important issues remain in the development of robust, usable climate scenarios. These include the incorporation of various sources of uncertainty into future scenarios and the production of scenarios at timescales relevant to planners. This paper describes a new procedure which addresses these issues by producing a multi-model ensemble of transient climat... Mehr ...
