MSG-GAN-SD: A Multi-Scale Gradients GAN for Statistical Downscaling of 2-Meter Temperature over the EURO-CORDEX Domain

AI, 2021
One of the most important open challenges in climate science is downscaling. It is a procedure that allows making predictions at local scales, starting from climatic field information available at large scale. Recent advances in deep learning provide new

A Relocatable Ocean Modeling Platform for Downscaling to Shelf-Coastal Areas to Support Disaster Risk Reduction

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021
High-impact ocean weather events and climate extremes can have devastating effects on coastal zones and small islands. Marine Disaster Risk Reduction (DRR) is a systematic approach to such events, through which the risk of disaster can be identified ...

Assessing the representation of Arctic sea ice and the marginal ice zone in ocean–sea ice reanalyses [PDF]

The Cryosphere
The recent development of data-assimilating reanalyses of the global ocean and sea ice enables a better understanding of the polar region dynamics and provides gridded descriptions of sea ice variables without temporal and spatial gaps.

Improving the potential accuracy and usability of EURO-CORDEX estimates of future rainfall climate using frequentist model averaging [PDF]

Nonlinear Processes in Geophysics, 2021
Probabilities of future climate states can be estimated by fitting distributions to the members of an ensemble of climate model projections. The change in the ensemble mean can be used as an estimate of the change in the mean of the real climate. However,

Climate Variability and Change of Mediterranean-Type Climates [PDF]

Journal of Climate, 2019
AbstractMediterranean-type climates are defined by temperate, wet winters, and hot or warm dry summers and exist at the western edges of five continents in locations determined by the geography of winter storm tracks and summer subtropical anticyclones.
