(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      To make sound decisions in the face of climate change, government agencies, policymakers and private stakeholders require suitable climate information on local to regional scales. In Switzerland, the development of climate ...

      Ban, Nikolina; Caillaud, Cécile; Coppola, Erika; Pichelli, Emanuela; Sobolowski, Stefan Pieter; Adinolfi, Marianna; Ahrens, Bodo; Alias, Antoinette; Anders, Ivonne; Bastin, Sophie; Belušić, Danijel; Berthou, Ségolène; Brisson, Erwan; Cardoso, Rita M.; Chan, Steven C.; Christensen, Ole Bøssing; Fernández, Jesús; Fita, Lluís; Frisius, Thomas; Gašparac, Goran; Giorgi, Filippo; Goergen, Klaus; Haugen, Jan Erik; Hodnebrog, Øivind; Kartsios, Stergios; Katragkou, Eleni; Kendon, Elizabeth J.; Keuler, Klaus; Lavin-Gullon, Alvaro; Lenderink, Geert; Leutwyler, David; Lorenz, Torge; Maraun, Douglas; Mercogliano, Paola; Milovac, Josipa; Panitz, Hans-Jürgen; Raffa, Mario; Remedio, Armelle Reca; Schär, Christoph; Soares, Pedro M.M.; Srnec, Lidija; Steensen, Birthe Marie Rødssæteren; Stocchi, Paolo; Tölle, Merja H.; Truhetz, Heimo; Vergara-Temprado, Jesus; de Vries, Hylke; Warrach-Sagi, Kirsten; Wulfmeyer, Volker; Zander, Mar Janne (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)
      Here we present the first multi-model ensemble of regional climate simulations at kilometer-scale horizontal grid spacing over a decade long period. A total of 23 simulations run with a horizontal grid spacing of ∼3 km, ...
    • Future summer warming pattern under climate change is affected by lapse-rate changes 

      Brogli, Roman; Sørland, Silje Lund; Kröner, Nico; Schär, Christoph (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)
      Greenhouse-gas-driven global temperature change projections exhibit spatial variations, meaning that certain land areas will experience substantially enhanced or reduced surface warming. It is vital to understand enhanced ...
    • Systematic Calibration of a Convection-Resolving Model: Application Over Tropical Atlantic 

      Liu, Shuchang; Zeman, Christian; Sørland, Silje Lund; Schär, Christoph (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      Non-hydrostatic km-scale weather and climate models show significant improvements in simulating clouds and precipitation, especially of convective nature. However, even km-scale models need to parameterize some physical ...
