  2. Modelling behaviour of systems or activities in different environments developed, tested and applied under European conditions for evaluating the potential impacts of climate change. Task 6.2.a Response surfaces and impact thresholds Task 6.2.b Scenario impacts and risk assessment Task 6.2.c Evaluating the impacts of extreme events WP 6.2 Linking impact models to probabilistic scenarios of climate change

  17. Some points arising: GCM archive not available in April – has this been solved? Observational data from RT5 (1958- at 25 km spatial resolution) should be available from September – cf. M. Haylock presentation, 11 am, Wednesday WP6.2 data requests surveyed; main concern is the timing of data delivery RCM runs: deadline is December 2007; majority for 1950-2050; some run to 2100; weighting of RCM outputs – cf. J. Christensen presentation, 16.40, Tuesday; Parallel session, 13.30-15.00, Thursday Seasonality – representation in the response surfaces Non-stationarity – implications for model calibration Scaling – from model grid to larger scale (e.g. river basin) Follow-up to Helsinki
