5 Perfect Prognosis The Perfect Prognosis Condition Perfect Prognosis The following notation for the horizontal spatial scales can be adapted: the minimum scale is defined as the distance between two neighboring grid points of the GCM, whereas the skillful scale is larger than N gridpoint distanes. It is likely that N 8 (Grotch and MacCracken, 1991). It is widely accepted that present-day GCMs are able to simulate the large-scale atmospheric state in a generally realistic manner, and it is believed that these models are the adequate tool to predict large-scale climate changes. Even though the GCMs produce values on the minimum scale, their implications on regional climate are questionable. (von Storch et al., J Climate, 1993) Douglas Maraun MOS ICTP, Trieste 5 / 53

8 Perfect Prognosis The Perfect Prognosis Condition Validation of predictor fields Brands et al., J Climate, 2013 Douglas Maraun MOS ICTP, Trieste 8 / 53

9 Perfect Prognosis The Perfect Prognosis Condition Idea: normalise predictors As Karl et al. (1990) demonstrated, regression-based downscaling methods also benefit from the standardization of the predictor variables (by their respective means and standard deviations) so that the corresponding distributions of observed and present-day GCM predictors are in closer agreement. (Wilby et al., Env. Mod. Soft. 2002) Douglas Maraun MOS ICTP, Trieste 9 / 53

12 Perfect Prognosis The Perfect Prognosis Condition Additionally process understanding Zappa et al., J Climate, 2013 Douglas Maraun MOS ICTP, Trieste 12 / 53

13 Perfect Prognosis Summary PP The Perfect Prognosis Condition Use large-scale free atmosphere predictors; De-biasing by substracting mean; But: substracting means hides biases and therefore potential problems; Are the relevant processes simulated? (Garbage in, garbage out) This is more than comparing means and variances! Douglas Maraun MOS ICTP, Trieste 13 / 53

14 Perfect Prognosis Variance Inflation Perfect Prognosis Variance Inflation Douglas Maraun MOS ICTP, Trieste 14 / 53

15 Perfect Prognosis Variance Inflation Variance Inflation The method of inflation, developed by Klein et al. (1958) was used, since an important goal of this analysis was to reproduce the actual variance calculated in the observations from the free-atmospheric predictors. (Karl et al., J. Climate, 1990) Douglas Maraun MOS ICTP, Trieste 15 / 53

16 Perfect Prognosis Variance Inflation Inflated regression 4 2 y x Maraun, J. Climate, 2014 Douglas Maraun MOS ICTP, Trieste 16 / 53

17 Perfect Prognosis Variance Inflation Inflated regression x y prediction underrepresents total variance Douglas Maraun MOS ICTP, Trieste 16 / 53 Maraun, J. Climate, 2014

18 Perfect Prognosis Variance Inflation Inflated regression x y prediction underrepresents total variance inflate regression (Klein et al., 1958; Karl et al., 1990; Bürger, 1996 Douglas Maraun MOS ICTP, Trieste 16 / 53 Maraun, J. Climate, 2014

19 Perfect Prognosis Variance Inflation Inflated regression y x prediction underrepresents total variance inflate regression (Klein et al., 1958; Karl et al., 1990; Bürger, 1996 flawed concept (Glahn and Allen, 1966; von Storch, 1999; Maraun, 2013) Maraun, J.

74 Large-Scale Errors Summary large-scale errors GCMs have substantial large-scale circulation errors; these errors cannot sensibly be corrected by current methods; prior to any bias correction, a pre-selection of suitable GCMs is required. If key processes are not simulated, a GCM should not be downscaled. How to mitigate GCM biases? Douglas Maraun MOS ICTP, Trieste 53 / 53
