Analyzing trends in precipitation patterns using Hidden Markov model stochastic weather generators

Christopher J. Paciorek

We develop a flexible spline-based Bayesian hidden Markov model stochastic weather generator to statistically model daily precipitation over time by season at individual locations.…

Detected changes in precipitation extremes at their native scales derived from in situ measurements

Mark D. Risser, Christopher J. Paciorek, Travis A. O'Brien +2

The gridding of daily accumulated precipitation -- especially extremes -- from ground-based station observations is problematic due to the fractal nature of precipitation, and ther…

A probabilistic gridded product for daily precipitation extremes over the United States

Mark D. Risser, Christopher J. Paciorek, Michael F. Wehner +2

Gridded data products, for example interpolated daily measurements of precipitation from weather stations, are commonly used as a convenient substitute for direct observations beca…

Spatially-Dependent Multiple Testing Under Model Misspecification, with Application to Detection of Anthropogenic Influence on Extreme Climate Events

Mark D. Risser, Christopher J. Paciorek, Daithi Stone

The Weather Risk Attribution Forecast (WRAF) is a forecasting tool that uses output from global climate models to make simultaneous attribution statements about whether and how gre…

Quantifying the effect of interannual ocean variability on the attribution of extreme climate events to human influence

Mark D. Risser, Daithi A. Stone, Christopher J. Paciorek +2

In recent years, the climate change research community has become highly interested in describing the anthropogenic influence on extreme weather events, commonly termed "event attr…

Statistically-estimated tree composition for the northeastern United States at the time of Euro-American settlement

Christopher J. Paciorek, Simon J. Goring, Andrew L. Thurman +6

We present a gridded 8 km-resolution data product of the estimated composition of tree taxa at the time of Euro-American settlement of the northeastern United States and the statis…
