Why corresponding values get saturated when it reaches lower probabilities ?

When conduct return period analysis on most of extreme events. For example in flood levels, the difference between the levels of 10-yr and 50 yr floods is significantly higher comparing to values...

How many GCMs would you use if you are making a model ensemble for climate change impact assessment ?

I know there are no any rules. But I just want to know the community idea about how many will suffice for a study.

When deriving the precipitation data from NETCDF files of CMIP5 GCMs, should I interpolate or just get the nearest point ?

In the climate change studies, we have to use CMIP5 data sets in NETCDF files. Should we interpolate between two points when getting prcp data for a point OR get the nearest point ? What is the...

How can I generate daily rainfall data from monthly rainfall?

Actually I don't have much of an idea how some weather generators work. Many of them have no input for monthly weather data. If there any R package for that kind of work it is much better.

In bias correction, Quantile mapping is not improving my results?

I am trying to do bias correction for CORDEX rcm data using qmap in R. But the results are poor. The CDFs are matching and the Variance is improving. But the mean values of each months are not...

"How to handle large negative geopotential values at the surface in reanalysis datasets?

I have observed in some cases there are large negative values of surface geopotential in Era5 and MERRA2, in most cases in regions with complex orography. Why this happens? How can i handle this?

Yes.The more than 20 existing GCMs predict gridded climate fields of SSTs, so from here you can construct the average anomalies for which Niño 3.4 is defined in 20W-170W, 5N-5S

The International Research Institute for Climate & Society (IRI) collects, posts, and distills ~25 ENSO predictions into a probabilistic outlook on ENSO. We also are a leading contributor to the WMO ENSO Outlook. For the most recent outlook, produced by IRI and the Climate Prediction Center (within the National Weather Service), check this link: http://iri.columbia.edu/our-expertise/climate/forecasts/enso/2013-september-quick-look/#

The October outlook should be available in a week or so.
