Two Types of Physical Inconsistency to Avoid with Univariate Quantile Mapping: A Case Study over North America Concerning Relative Humidity and Its Parent Variables
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractUnivariate quantile mapping (QM), a technique often used to statistically postprocess climate simulations, may generate physical inconsistency. This issue is investigated here by classifying physical inconsistency ...
Chances of Short-Term Cooling Estimated from a Selection of CMIP5-Based Climate Scenarios during 2006–35 over Canada
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he path toward a warmer global climate is not smooth, but, rather, is made up of a succession of positive and negative temperature trends, with cooling having more chance to occur the shorter the time scale considered. In ...
An Assessment of Six Dissimilarity Metrics for Climate Analogs
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: patial analog techniques consist in identifying locations whose historical climate is similar to the anticipated future climate at a reference location. In the process of identifying analogs, one key step is the quantification ...
A Decade of Climate Scenarios: The Ouranos Consortium Modus Operandi
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: s a nonprofit consortium launched in 2002 with the mandate to provide climate services to its governmental, academic, and private partners. These services have focused on the impacts of climate change in the province of ...
