Downscaling Techniques for High-Resolution Climate Projections - From Global Change to Local Impacts (Kotamarthi Rao (Argonne National Laboratory Illinois))(Pevná vazba)

Downscaling is a widely used technique for translating information from large-scale climate models to the spatial and temporal scales needed to assess local and regional climate impacts, vulnerability, risk and resilience. This book is a comprehensive guide to the downscaling techniques used for climate data. A general introduction of the science of climate modeling is followed by a discussion of techniques, models and methodologies used for producing downscaled projections, and the advantages, disadvantages and uncertainties of each. The book provides detailed information on dynamic and stati
