 ===== Description of the Met Norway method ===== ===== Description of the Met Norway method =====
-The method from the Meteorologisk institutt uses the R package [[http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/qmap/index.html|qmap: Statistical transformations for post-processing climate model output]]. Basically, it performs a quantile mapping of the simulated time series to observed ones for each grid point. It does so by estimating values for regularly spaced quantiles of the empirical cumulative distribution function and using these estimates to perform a quantile mapping. Details on the method can be found in Gudmundsson et al. (2012, doi:10.5194/hess-16-3383-2012). The set-up includes a linear interpolation between the fitted transformed values, and simulated values lying outside the range of the training period (e.g., from climate projections) are extrapolated using the correction found for the highest quantile of the training period, as suggested by Boé et al. (2007, doi: 10.1002/joc.1602). Furthermore, the method includes an adjustment of wet-day frequencies for precipitation.+The method from the Meteorologisk institutt uses the R package [[http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/qmap/index.html|qmap: Statistical transformations for post-processing climate model output]].

(2007, doi: 10.1002/joc.1602). Furthermore, the method includes an adjustment of wet-day frequencies for precipitation. For temperature, the quantile mapping takes into account the main trend by subtracting the (5-year) mean before the quantile mapping and adding it again afterwards. This is expected to reduce the impact on the mean climate change signal.
