Evaluation of downscaling seasonal climate forecasts for crop yield forecasting in Zimbabwe
Meteorology and weather forecasting are crucial for water-limited agriculture. We evaluate the added value of downscaling seven-months global deterministic seasonal forecasts from the Climate Forecast System version 2 (CFSv2) using the Weather, Research ...

Application of Gaofen-6 Images in the Downscaling of Land Surface Temperatures
The coarse resolution of land surface temperatures (LSTs) retrieved from thermal-infrared (TIR) satellite images restricts their usage. One way to improve the resolution of such LSTs is downscaling using high-resolution remote sensing images.

Evaluating downscaling methods of GRACE (Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment) data: a case study over a fractured crystalline aquifer in southern India [PDF]
GRACE (Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment) and its follow-on mission have provided since 2002 monthly anomalies of total water storage (TWS), which are very relevant to assess the evolution of groundwater storage (GWS) at global and regional scales.

Uncovering the shortcomings of a weather typing method [PDF]
In recent years many methods for statistical downscaling of the precipitation climate model outputs have been developed. Statistical downscaling is performed under general and method-specific (structural) assumptions but those are rarely evaluated ...

Representing climate and extreme weather events in integrated assessment models: A review of existing methods and options for development [PDF]
The lack of information about future changes in extreme weather is a major constraint of Integrated Assessment Models (IAMs) of climate change. The generation of descriptions of future climate in current IAMs is assessed.We also review recent work on ...
