Differences between downscaling with spectral and grid nudging using WRF [PDF]
Abstract. Dynamical downscaling has been extensively used to study regional climate forced by large-scale global climate models. During the downscaling process, however, the simulation of regional climate models (RCMs) tends to drift away from the driving fields.

The influence of spectral nudging on typhoon formation in regional climate models
Regional climate models can successfully simulate tropical cyclones and typhoons. This has been shown and was evaluated for hindcast studies of the past few decades. But often global and regional weather phenomena are not simulated at the observed location, or occur too often or seldom even though the regional model is driven by global reanalysis data ...

Inferring flow parameters and turbulent configuration with physics-informed data assimilation and spectral nudging [PDF]
Inferring physical parameters of turbulent flows by assimilation of data measurements is an open challenge with key applications in meteorology, climate modeling and astrophysics. Up to now, spectral nudging was applied for empirical data-assimilation as a mean to improve deterministic and statistical predictability in the presence of a restricted set ...

Sensitivity Evaluation of Spectral Nudging Schemes in Historical Dynamical Downscaling for South Asia [PDF]
Sensitivity experiments testing two scale-selective bias correction (SSBC) methods have been carried out to identify an optimal spectral nudging scheme for historical dynamically downscaled simulations of South Asia, using the coordinated regional climate downscaling experiment (CORDEX) protocol and the regional spectral model (RSM).

Comparison of Analysis and Spectral Nudging Techniques for Dynamical Downscaling with the WRF Model over China [PDF]
To overcome the problem that the horizontal resolution of global climate models may be too low to resolve features which are important at the regional or local scales, dynamical downscaling has been extensively used. However, dynamical downscaling results generally drift away from large-scale driving fields. The nudging technique can be used to balance

Does Spectral Nudging Have an Effect on Dynamical Downscaling Applied in Small Regional Model Domains? [PDF]
Spectral nudging is a method that was developed to constrain regional climate models so that they reproduce the development of the large-scale atmospheric state, while permitting the formation of regional-scale details as conditioned by the large scales.

Impacts of using spectral nudging on regional climate model RCA4 simulations of the Arctic [PDF]
Abstract. The performance of the Rossby Centre regional climate model RCA4 is investigated for the Arctic CORDEX (COordinated Regional climate Downscaling EXperiment) region, with an emphasis on its suitability to be coupled to a regional ocean and sea ice model.

The impact of wave number selection and spin-up time in spectral nudging [PDF]
The present work studies two relevant parameters from spectral nudging. First, the cut-off wave number, which effectively separates the nudged scales from the free running ones. And, second, the spin-up time, which determines how much time is needed to reach a balance between the nudging force and the model internal climate.
