After completion of the course the participants should be able to extract data from global and regional climate model projections, apply statistical and “space-for-time” downscaling methods using dedicated software and discuss pros and cons of different downscaling methods.

The course is arranged by the Centre for Regional Change in the Earth System in collaboration with the Technical University of Denmark.

The target group for the course is PhD students working with downscaling, climate modelling or impacts research in relation to climate change. In addition, young researchers and professionals with interest in the topic may also benefit from following the course.
