The added value of km-scale simulations to describe temperature over complex orography: the CORDEX FPS-Convection multi-model ensemble runs over the Alps
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)The increase in computational resources has enabled the emergence of multi-model ensembles of convection-permitting regional climate model (CPRCM) simulations at very high horizontal resolutions. An example is the CORDEX ... -
The added value of simulated near-surface wind speed over the Alps from a km-scale multimodel ensemble
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)The advancement of computational resources has allowed researchers to run convection-permitting regional climate model (CPRCM) simulations. A pioneering effort promoting a multimodel ensemble of such simulations is the ... -
Elevation dependent precipitation and temperature changes over Indian Himalayan region
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Various studies reported an elevation dependent precipitation and temperature changes in mountainous regions of the world including the Himalayas. Various mechanisms are proposed to link the possible dependence of the ... -
The first multi-model ensemble of regional climate simulations at kilometer-scale resolution, part I: evaluation of precipitation
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Here we present the first multi-model ensemble of regional climate simulations at kilometer-scale horizontal grid spacing over a decade long period. A total of 23 simulations run with a horizontal grid spacing of ∼3 km, ... -
Future changes in atmospheric rivers and Extreme precipitation in Norway
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Flooding events associated with extreme precipitation have had large impacts in Norway. It is well known that these Heavy precipitation events afecting Norway (and other parts of Europe) are strongly associated with ... -
Future urban heat island influence on precipitation
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Urbanization and global warming are two of the major human impacts on the environment. The Urban Heat Island (UHI) effect can change precipitation patterns. Global warming also leads to changes in precipitation and especially ... -
Investigating the representation of heatwaves from an ensemble of km-scale regional climate simulations within CORDEX-FPS convection
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Heatwaves (HWs) are high-impact phenomena stressing both societies and ecosystems. Their intensity and frequency are expected to increase in a warmer climate over many regions of the world. While these impacts can be ... -
Precipitation frequency in Med-CORDEX and EURO-CORDEX ensembles from 0.44° to convection-permitting resolution: impact of model resolution and convection representation
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Recent studies using convection-permitting (CP) climate simulations have demonstrated a step-change in the representation of heavy rainfall and rainfall characteristics (frequency-intensity) compared to coarser resolution ... -
Understanding model diversity in future precipitation projections for South America
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Precipitation patterns are expected to change in the future climate, affecting humans through a number of factors. Global climate models (GCM) are our best tools for projecting large-scale changes in climate, but they ...
