APEC Climate Center (APCC) invited Prof. Hyun-Han Kwon from Chonbuk National University and hosted a seminar on temporal dwonscaling techniques at the APCC headquarters in Haeundae, Busan on May 14, 2018.
This seminar aimed to share Prof. Kwon’s knowledge and insights on temporal downscaling techniques with APCC researchers and provide an opportunity to discuss these techniques. By doing so, this seminar can elevate APCC’s capacity to produce and provide user-oriented climate information.
During the seminar, Prof. Hyun-Han Kwon delivered a presentation on ‘Assessing Hydro-Climatology Risk Using Climate Information and Statistical Approaches’.
Downscaling is the general name for a procedure to take large-scale climate information and generate predictions at the local scale. Statistical downscaling is a two-step process consisting of: (1) the development of statistical relationships between local climate variables (e.g., surface air temperature and precipitation) and large-scale predictors (e.g., pressure fields), and (2) the application of such relationships to the global climate model outputs in experiments to simulate local climate characteristics in the future.
