Evaluating the spatiotemporal skill of bias-corrected NMME forecasts against climatological forecasts for seasonal precipitation in China [PDF]
Scientific ReportsGlobal Climate Models (GCMs) offer valuable seasonal precipitation forecasts information. However, their predictive performance may be inferior to traditional climatological forecasts derived from historical precipitation data. In this study, we evaluate

Reconstructing climate trends adds skills to seasonal reference crop evapotranspiration forecasting [PDF]
Hydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2022 Evapotranspiration plays an important role in the terrestrial water cycle. Reference crop evapotranspiration (ETo) has been widely used to estimate water transfer from vegetation surface to the atmosphere.

A framework for assessing the value of seasonal climate forecasting in key agricultural decisions
Climate Services, 2021 While climate information services are widely available, translating climate information into actionable solutions to reduce climate risk, which are readily taken up by producers, remains a critical challenge.

A Bayesian modelling method for post-processing daily sub-seasonal to seasonal rainfall forecasts from global climate models and evaluation for 12 Australian catchments [PDF]
Hydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2018 Rainfall forecasts are an integral part of hydrological forecasting systems at sub-seasonal to seasonal timescales. In seasonal forecasting, global climate models (GCMs) are now the go-to source for rainfall forecasts.
