Project: Downscaling the Global Climate Models with use of the Stochastic Weather Generator

The project will focus on using the parametric and non-parametric stochastic weather generators (WGs) for downscaling the Global Climate Model (GCM). Aims: (1) Improvement and validation of the WGs.(2) Comparison of their performance with other downscaling methods involved in COST ES1102. (3) Linking the WGs with the GCM-based climate change scenarios. (4) Construction of the probabilistic climate change scenarios from GCM simulations in terms of WG parameters and various climatic characteristics. (5) Implementation of the daily cycle (in terms of the hourly values) into the weather generator.
