Enhanced Detectability of Added Value in Limited-Area Model Results Separated into Different Spatial Scales (2006, background): “These constraints are taken from either global model scenarios (e.g., Christensen and Christensen 2003 ) or from global reanalyses (e.g., Feser et al. 2001).”
Empirical downscaling of wind speed probability distributions (2005, background): “been observed in previous downscaling research [e.g., Evans et al., 2004; Buishand and Brandsma, 2001; Lynn et al., 2004; Schnur, 2002] and (2) generate output that is accessible to, and more strongly coupled to, the needs of user communities that may have specific interest in, for example, changes ”
An improvement of analog model strategy for more reliable local climate change scenarios (2005, background): “It is therefore common to downscale the results from the GCMs either through a nested high-resolution regional climate model (RCM) ( Christensen and Christensen, 2002; Christensen et al., 2001, 1998) or through empirical=statistical downscaling (von Storch et al., 1993; Rummukainen, 1997).”
Contrasting response of grassland versus forest carbon and water fluxes to spring drought in Switzerland (2013, background): “…DOI. of ecologists, such as severe droughts and heatwaves in summer 2003 (Ciais et al 2005) and 2010 (Barriopedro et al 2011), flood events in 2002 (Christensen and Christensen 2003) and 2005 (Schmocker-Fackel and Naef 2010), and severe storms—such as ‘Lothar’ in 1999 and ‘Gudrun’ in 2005…”
Impacts of climatic change on water and associated economic activities in the Swiss Alps (2012, background): “Christensen and Christensen (2003) have shown that in northern Europe, there is likely to be more precipitation on average, while in a large band stretching from France to the Black Sea and beyond, summer precipitation is projected to diminish by as much as 40%.”
Why economic dynamics matter in assessing climate change damages : illustration on extreme events (2007, background): “The model is calibrated so that the benchmark equilibrium is the economic balance of the European Union in 2001(EU 15), assuming that the economy was then in a steady state 5 .”
Sand temperatures for nesting sea turtles in the Caribbean: Implications for hatchling sex ratios in the face of climate change (2016, methodology): “This scenario is commonly used in studies (e.g. Christensen and Christensen, 2003; Wiens et al., 2009).”
Climate-change effects on extreme precipitation in central Europe: uncertainties of scenarios based on regional climate models (2009, background): “Christensen and Christensen 2003, 2004; Pal et al. 2004; Hagemann et al. 2004; Beniston et al. 2007) as well as the current lack of agreement in the pattern of change among RCMs, must be considered as a serious threat with severe implications into water resources management and flood-risk assessmen”
Regional climate models add value to global model data, A Review and Selected Examples (2011, background): “These constraints are taken either from global model scenarios (Christensen and Christensen 2003) or from global reanalysis (Feser et a l. 2001; Sotillo et al. 2005).”
