[Narccap-topic-extremes] NARCCAP Extremes - What are you doing?

[Jana Sillmann]

Hello everyone,
I am using the NARCCAP models to study how realistically the models 
represent the linkage between ENSO and extreme precipitation that has 
been revealed in observations over the North American continent. My 
analysis focus on spatial patterns and changes in frequency and 
amplitude of extreme precipitation during ENSO events. I am using 
indices for extremes as well as extreme value theory for non-stationary 
processes. Some results I will present in a poster at the WCRP Open 
Science Conference in Denver this October. Hopefully I will have the 
chance to meet some of you there!

Cheers,
Jana
