[NARCCAP-discuss] why 50km x 50km

Dear all:

 

Anyone knows why the NARCCAP models choose the 50km x 50km resolution? This
looks a naïve question, but I was asked in a recent presentation. I checked
the NARCCAP website thoroughly, but found no answer. Why the resolution is
50km x 50km, why not 10km x 10 km? Is 50 km resolution good enough to catch
the spatial heterogeneity of climate change in the United States? 

 

Thanks for any clue or suggestion. 

 

Jianhua
