Spatial Distributions of Precipitation Events from Regional Climate Models
نویسنده
چکیده
The Institute of Mathematics Applied to Geosciences (IMAGe) and the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) has an active research program in the statistical analysis of large numerical simulation of the climate over North America. What is unique about these simulations is their high resolution (50 km) which approaches the scale needed to assess local effects of climate change. The goal of this research is to quantify the validity of these models when compared to observed data. This project uses my past work on precipitation using flexible statistical analysis software (R package) and observational data.

Climate Change Impact on Precipitation Extreme Events in Uncertainty Situation; Passing from Global Scale to Regional Scale
Global warming and then climate change are important topics studied by researchers throughout the world in the recent decades. In these studies, climatic parameters changes are investigated. Considering large-scaled output of AOGCMs and low precision in computational cells, uncertainty analysis is one of the principles in doing hydrological studies. For this reason, it is tried that investigati...
متن کاملComparing regional precipitation and temperature extremes in climate model and reanalysis products
A growing field of research aims to characterise the contribution of anthropogenic emissions to the likelihood of extreme weather and climate events. These analyses can be sensitive to the shapes of the tails of simulated distributions. If tails are found to be unrealistically short or long, the anthropogenic signal emerges more or less clearly, respectively, from the noise of possible weather....

متن کاملTemporal and spatial scaling impacts on extreme precipitation
Convective and stratiform precipitation events have fundamentally different physical causes. Using a radar composite over Germany, this study separates these precipitation types and compares extremes at different spatial and temporal scales, ranging from 1 to 50 km and 5 min to 6 h, respectively. Four main objectives are addressed. First, we investigate extreme precipitation intensities for con...
متن کامل2 CO 2 Eastern Asia regional responses in the RSM / CCM 3 modeling system
A global to regional modeling system has been developed to evaluate precipitation under doubled CO2. The National Centers for Environmental Prediction (NCEP) regional spectral model (RSM) is initialized and forced by current and doubled CO2 simulations from the NCAR community climate model (CCM3). Three RSM simulations, RSM0, RSM1, and RSM2, with resolution of 280, 50 and 15 km, are examined. T...
