A Statistical Downscaling Model (SDM) developed at the Bureau of Meteorology has now reached a stage where high resolution climate change projections of essential surface variables (rainfall and daily temperature), at a daily time scales, can be generated for the entire Australian continent. These projections are resolved onto on a horizontal grid of approximately 5-by-5km, and are based on an existing international database of global climate model projections used for assessment of climate change impacts as defined by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC).
