Precipitation downscaling improves the coarse resolution and poor representation of
precipitation in global climate models and helps end users to assess the likely hydrological …

We review recent advances in classifications of circulation patterns as a specific research
area within synoptic climatology. The review starts with a general description of goals of …

Two downscaling methods designed for the study of the hydrological impact of climate
change on the Seine basin in France are tested for present climate. First, a multivariate …

Spatially and temporally high-resolution estimates of past natural climate variability are
important to assess recent significant climate trends. The mid-latitude atmospheric …

High-resolution temperature and precipitation variations and their seasonal extremes since
1500 are presented for the European Alps (43.25–48.25 N and 4.25–16.25 E). The spatial …

the industrial period is unusual against the background of pre-industrial climate variability. It …

A high-resolution record of paleostorm events along the French Mediterranean coast over
the past 7000 years was established from a lagoonal sediment core in the Gulf of Lions …

Abstract A June–August Alpine temperature proxy series is developed back to AD 951 using
1,527 ring-width measurements from living trees and relict wood. The reconstruction is …
