The task Soil erosion model within the LandCaRe „model chain“ needs rain input with a temporal resolution of 30 min. CLM output is available hourly. Downscaling technique is needed. First step: All model grid boxes with more than 20 mm daily precipitation are extracted from CLM output. 3. Jahrestreffen LandCaRe 2020, Tharandt – 30. November 2009
Two cases of downscaling Two principle cases: Data consists of averages (1 h rain sum 30 min rain sum). Downscaling should produce averages of smaller scale. The variance of each scale should be increased by a certain amount. The pdf should contain more extremes. Data consists of point measurements (DWD rain stations rain map of Germany) Downscling should produce synthetic data in observation gaps. The variance and pdf should remain constant. 3.

It results: The original covariance xixj plus the added variance DxDx This is valid for each scale as xi and xj have an arbitrary time lag. Principle of average downscaling Two coarse averages xiand xj are altered by a random Dx. 3. Jahrestreffen LandCaRe 2020, Tharandt – 30. November 2009
Determination of the variance to be added The original (1h) data variance is 4.379 mm2/h2 Averaging over 2,4,8 hours reduces the variance. A linear fit enables us to estimate the potential variance for 0.5 h time resolution: 5.457 mm2/h2 3. Jahrestreffen LandCaRe 2020, Tharandt – 30. November 2009
Effects on semi-variogram Thetotal variance (horizontal lines) is increased (as desired) from 4.379 to 5.455 (mm/h)2 This increase (as desired) is added equally to each scale (see dashed line for difference) 3. Jahrestreffen LandCaRe 2020, Tharandt – 30. November 2009
