Objectives

Establish a quality assurance tools to identify and adjust for homogeneity violation

Producing homogenized daily values of temperature and precipitation for a number of long climate series.

Develop methodology to generate "homogenized" daily values of precipitation and temperature for given locations / catchments based on gridded (1x1 km) map.

Facilitate homogenized daily values and analysis for homogenization so that it is available to external users, such as Statkraft.

Challenges with the methods

HOMER


What is new?

7

· Former homogenization of monthly values

· Mostly temperature data of some stations

· Now homogenization of daily data

- and all the precipitation stations

· New methods and programs:

- SNHT HOMER, MASH, SPLIDHOM, RHtest

Experiences so far..

· For temperature, we follow the recommendations of COST HOME:

· Homer for monthly temperature

· Software: SPLIDHOM for daily temperature

· Homogeneity Software precipitation is problematic:

Seasonal challenges are not covered by "standard" applications.

We use several Homer, MASH, ....

One method of day P.T. (RHtests_dlyPrcp4 @ Wang)

Have access to other methods (MASH, ACMANT, ...) for

comparison (monthly data)

Open source can be a challenge:

· lack of standardization maintenance and repairs
