Probabilistic prediction of extreme weather events using the Analog Ensemble technique


Overview

Employing a downscaling algorithm based on the Analog Ensemble (AnEn) method to identify extreme weather events from datasets that vary in spatio-temporal resolution. The output is combined with socioeconomic data to quantify the vulnerability of urban populations to heat waves.
