STARDEX will provide a rigorous and systematic inter-comparison and evaluation of statistical, dynamical and statistical-dynamical downscaling methods for the construction of scenarios of extremes. The more robust techniques will be identified and used to produce future scenarios of extremes for European case-study regions for the end of the 21st century. These will help to address the vital question as to whether extremes will occur more frequently in the future.
STARDEX is part of a co-operative cluster of projects exploring future changes in extreme events in response to global warming. The other members of the cluster are MICE and PRUDENCE. This research is highly relevant to current climate related problems in Europe.
