Downscaling is a crucial technique employed to translate information from large-scale climate models to the spatial and temporal scales required to assess local and regional climate impacts, vulnerabilities, risks, and resilience. This comprehensive book serves as a valuable guide to the various downscaling techniques used for climate data. It begins with a general introduction to the science of climate modeling, followed by a detailed exploration of the techniques, models, and methodologies employed for producing downscaled projections. The book also delves into the advantages, disadvantages, and uncertainties associated with each downscaling approach, providing valuable insights for practitioners and researchers alike.
In addition to discussing dynamic and statistical downscaling techniques, the book offers a non-technical explanation of these methods. It provides recommendations for selecting suitable downscaled datasets for different applications, such as climate impact assessment, adaptation planning, and climate risk management. Furthermore, the book discusses the use of downscaled climate data in national and international assessments, utilizing global examples to illustrate its practical applications.
This book is particularly valuable for graduate students and researchers engaged in climate impacts and adaptation studies, as well as for policy makers and practitioners interested in climate risk and resilience. It offers a comprehensive and up-to-date understanding of downscaling techniques, enabling readers to apply these methods effectively in their work.
