TL;DR: In this paper, the performance of the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project phase 5 (CMIP5) in simulating intra-annual, annual and decadal temperature over Northern Eurasia from 1901 to 2005 was evaluated.

TL;DR: In this paper, a methodology for regional parameter estimation of the VIC-3L land surface model with the goal of improving the streamflow simulation for river basins in China is presented.

TL;DR: In this article, a three-year (September 1996-September 1999) retrospective forcing data set was created from the Eta Data Assimilation System and observations and used to run the NLDAS land surface models for this period.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors evaluate the performance of different multi-model ensemble techniques and use the best technique toproject the future SAT changes under different emission scenarios, and the results show that most ofthe general circulation models (GCMs) overestimate the annual mean SAT in Northern Eurasia and the difference between the observation and the simulations primarily comes from the winterseason.

TL;DR: This study systematically review ten commonly used quantitative methods drawn from three main categories-empirical statistics, elasticity-based methods, and hydrological modeling and shows that climate change played a dominant role in the decline in runoff in the Yanhe River basin.
