The Effect of Urban Warming on the Northern Hemisphere Temperature Average
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The significance of the urban warming effect on large-scale and hemispheric mean temperature series is assessed using estimates of the urbanization bias for stations in the United States produced by Karl et al. It is ...
Generating Rainfall and Temperature Scenarios at Multiple Sites: Examples from the Mediterranean
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A statistical downscaling methodology was implemented to generate daily time series of temperature and rainfall for point locations within a catchment, based on the output from general circulation models. The rainfall ...
The Simulation of Daily Temperature Time Series from GCM Output. Part I: Comparison of Model Data with Observations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: For climate change impact analyses, local scenarios of surface variables at the daily scales are frequently required. Empirical transfer functions are a widely used technique to generate scenarios from GCM data at these ...
