Model validation and drought assessment with a regional climate model over Moldova

Original language description

We assess the drought characteristics in the Republic of Moldova based on the Standardized Precipitation Index (SPI) calculated from monthly precipitation data simulated by the Regional Climate Model RegCM3. The RegCM simulations were conducted at a horizontal resolution of 10 km in the framework of EU-FP6 project Central and Eastern Europe Climate Change Impact and Vulnerability Assessment (CECILIA). The domain was centered over Romania at 46oN, 25oE and included the Republic of Moldova. We validate the model ability to simulate monthly temperature and precipitation by comparing the model simulations forced by ERA40 with the observations from CRU TS2.0 dataset and station observations for the period 1961?1990. The RegCM simulations (control and scenario runs) forced with the ECHAM5 Global Circulation Model (GCM) have been corrected against the systematic errors induced by the GCM. After the bias correction, the annual cycle of temperature and preci
