ICRC CORDEX 2016 - Poster Session A - Bert Van Schaeybroeck
The Coordinated Regional Downscaling Experiment (CORDEX) was initiated by the World Climate Research Programme (WCRP) in 2009 in response to the need for a coordinated framework for evaluating and improving regional climate downscaling (RCD) techniques and producing a new generation of RCD-based fine-scale climate projections for identified regions worldwide. The CORDEX framework additionally offered the potential for better coordination of RCD-related research and modelling activities within the regional climate modelling and downscaling communities and further to bridge the gap between the climate modelling community and end users of climate information across the globe.
