Human influence on the record-breaking cold event in January of 2016 in Eastern China [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Anthropogenic influences are estimated to have reduced the likelihood of an extreme cold event in midwinter with the intensity equal to or stronger than the record of 2016 in eastern China by about two ...

Extreme Cold Days and Spells in Northern Europe at 0.5°C–2.0°C Global Warming Levels

open access: yesInternational Journal of Climatology, Volume 45, Issue 9, July 2025.
Probabilities (in %) for the occurrence of a winter cold spell more severe than that occurring once in (i) 2, (ii) 4, (iii) 10, (iv) 20, (v) 40 or (vi) 100 years in the baseline climate (0.5 degrees of global warming) as a function of the global warming level; spatial averages over land areas within 50‐71.25°N, 4.5‐45°E, derived from an ensemble of 25 ...

Review of Surface Solar Radiation Projections in Bias-Corrected Euro-Cordex Regional Climate Models

open access: yesAnnals of West University of Timisoara: Physics, 2018
Regional climate models (RCMs) are used in a wide range of climate applications as they can provide high resolution (up to 10 to 20 km or less) and multi-decadal simulations of the climate system describing climate feedback mechanisms acting at the ...

Has the fire weather index emerged? Insights from global and regional climate models

open access: yesWeather and Climate Extremes
Wildfires are expected to become more intense due to global warming. This change will significantly affect ecosystems and communities. We examine when and where fire weather conditions go beyond natural variability by using the Canadian Fire Weather ...

On the Spin‐Up Period in WRF Simulations Over Europe: Trade‐Offs Between Length and Seasonality

open access: yesJournal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, 2020
Regional climate models (RCMs) are usually initialized and driven through the boundaries of their limited area domain by data provided by global models (GCMs).

Temporal Characteristics of Heat Waves and Cold Spells and Their Links to Atmospheric Circulation in EURO-CORDEX RCMs

open access: yesAdvances in Meteorology, 2019
We study summer heat waves and winter cold spells and their links to atmospheric circulation in an ensemble of EURO-CORDEX RCMs in Central Europe. Results of 19 simulations were compared against observations over 1980–2005.

EURO-CORDEX CMIP6 GCM Selection & Ensemble Design: Best Practices and Recommendations

open access: yes, 2023
This white paper and the accompanying tables published in GitHub are meant to help modellers in EURO-CORDEX, and elsewhere, make informed decisions when it comes to selecting GCMs for downscaling from the CMIP6 archive. While the approach to GCM selection during the CMIP5 downscaling phase cannot be wholly considered an “ensemble of opportunity” it is ...

Evidence of added value in North American regional climate model hindcast simulations using ever-increasing horizontal resolutions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Commonly termed “added value”, the additional regional details gained by high-resolution regional climate models (RCMs) over the coarser resolution reanalysis driving data are often indistinguishable at the 0.44° grid mesh computationally affordable ...

Evaluating EURO-CORDEX simulations for power and energy system applications

open access: yes, 2022
Modeling the wind power generation relies on simulating its intermittency and spatio-temporal dependencies. For such, time series (TS) from high spatial and temporal resolutions data sets are required, which hinder the use of climate simulations in energy modeling.
