Weighted multi-model ensemble projection of extreme precipitation in the Mediterranean region using statistical downscaling

Projections of seasonal extreme precipitation changes in eight Mediterranean subregions between the end of the twentieth and the end of the twenty-first century are analyzed using weighted multi-model ensembles. Weights are based on the performance of predictor variables in the scope of statistical downscaling. Two indices of precipitation scarcity as well as two indices of heavy precipitation are downscaled from global climate model data of the...
