A comparison of three methods for downscaling daily precipitation in the Punjab region (2011, background): “Implicit assumptions in SD are (Wilby and Wigley, 1997; von Storch et al., 2000) that (1) the predictors are variables of relevance and are realistically modelled by the GCM, (2) the predictors employed fully represent the climate change signal, and (3) the relationship is valid under altered…”

Regional climate modelling (2008, methodology): “The application of the ‘‘large-scale nudging’’ technique ([104,12,72]) follows (20b): the large-scale components of RCM fields are replaced by (or nudged towards) the corresponding large-scale components of the driving fields; this is done within the whole RCM computational domain.”
Regional Climate Information—Evaluation and Projections (2001, methodology): “…is to also force the large-scale component of the RCM solution throughout the entire domain (e.g., Kida et al., 1991; Cocke and LaRow, 2000; von Storch et al., 2000) To date, this technique has been used only in one-way mode, i.e., with no feedback from the RCM simulation to the driving GCM.”
Dynamical downscaling of ERA-40 in complex terrain using the WRF regional climate model (2011, background): “The value of spectral nudging has been discussed in the literature (e.g. Alexandru et al. 2008; Miguez-Macho et al. 2004, 2005; Radu et al. 2008; Von Storch et al. 2000; Zahn et al. 2008) and there is some controversy.”

Dynamical downscaling: Assessment of model system dependent retained and added variability for two different regional climate models (2008, methodology): “For nudging in the interior domain (i.e., over the whole model domain) a spectral nudging technique [e.g., Kida et al., 1991; von Storch et al., 2000] can be applied.”
Spectral nudging in a spectral regional climate model (2008, methodology): “The spectral nudging scheme used in this study is similar to the spectral nudging method, originally described by Waldron et al. (1996) and later by von Storch et al. (2000), Biner et al. (2000), Miguez-Macho et al. (2004), Castro et al. (2005).”
Development of New Ensemble Methods Based on the Performance Skills of Regional Climate Models over South Korea (2012, methodology): “In all the models, large-scale nudging methods (Von Storch et al. 2000; Miguez-Macho et al. 2005; Kanamaru and Kanamitsu, 2007) were applied to reduce the deviation due to a large-scale regime (.1000-km wavelength) between the RCM solution and large-scale forcing data.”
A new high‐resolution Meteorological Reanalysis Italian Dataset: MERIDA (2019, background): “Here, it is decided to apply spectral nudging (von Storch et al., 2000; Liu et al., 2012), which is based on a preliminary evaluation of the scale at which the driver is able to solve synoptic waves reliably.”
Spectral nudging to eliminate the effects of domain position and geometry in regional climate model simulations (2004, methodology): “: SPECTRAL NUDGING IN REGIONAL MODELS 2 of 14 D13104 As a solution we propose here the relaxation of the long waves in the domain to those of the driving fields with a spectral nudging technique [Waldron et al., 1996; von Storch et al., 2000; Miguez-Macho et al., 2004].”
Multi‐decadal atmospheric modeling for europe yields multi‐purpose data (2001, methodology): “In addition to this conventional approach, a spectral nudging technique [von Storch et al., 2000] was applied to the entire model domain.”
Convection‐permitting modeling with regional climate models: Latest developments and next steps (2021, background): “This, in turn, implies that spectral nudging is only rarely required to further constrain the CPRCM large-scale atmospheric state toward the LBC (von Storch et al., 2000).”
Downscaling ability of one-way nested regional climate models: the Big-Brother Experiment (2001, methodology): “To circumvent this, an alternative technique called ‘‘spectral nudging’’ or ‘‘largescale driving’’ can be used (e.g. Waldron et al. 1996; von Storch et al. 2000; Biner et al. 2000).”
