3 Research objective To have daily precipitation projection for the study on impacts of climate change on extreme event. Daily GCM projections from 2010~2045 are not available from IPCC DDC To develop a weather generator to produce daily precipitation using monthly output from GCMs. Statistical Downscaling Local precipitation projection 3

21 Conclusions 1 Weather generator is an important tool to produce future daily precipitation, if we only have monthly projection output. But, more sound research on choice of probability distribution may be needed for extreme events. 22 In the future, extremely daily precipitations will possibly occur in the study area under the climate change scenarios. 3 To combine the spatial downscaling with the temporal downscaling may be more reasonable for precipitation projection. 21
