Stochastic drought quantification for the South Canadian Prairie (2012)
Presentation / Conference
Chun, K., Wheater, H., Vashchyshyn, I., & Khaliq, N. (2012, December). Stochastic drought quantification for the South Canadian Prairie. Presented at AGU Fall Meeting, San Francisco

For formulating robust adaptation policies under nonstationary climate, drought processes need to be characterised and modelled adequately. As a case study, the major drought episode in the early 2000s in the South Canadian Prairie is investigated us... Read More about Stochastic drought quantification for the South Canadian Prairie.

A stochastic assessment of climate change impacts on precipitation and potential evaporation in Alberta (2012)
Presentation / Conference
Vashchyshyn, I., Wheater, H., & Chun, K. (2012, December). A stochastic assessment of climate change impacts on precipitation and potential evaporation in Alberta. Poster presented at AGU Fall Meeting

In many climate change investigations, changes in precipitation are projected under various scenarios; however, changes in evaporation have received relatively less attention. For irrigation and water resources management, the difference between pote... Read More about A stochastic assessment of climate change impacts on precipitation and potential evaporation in Alberta.

Projecting and hindcasting potential evaporation for the UK between 1950 and 2099 (2012)
Journal Article
Chun, K. P., Wheater, H. S., & Onof, C. (2012). Projecting and hindcasting potential evaporation for the UK between 1950 and 2099. Climatic Change, 113(3-4), 639-661. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10584-011-0375-3

Evaporation estimation is important for the assessment of a wide range of potential impacts of climate change, yet there are significant questions concerning the relevance of alternative methods for climate change studies, and the uncertainty associa...

An extreme analysis for the 2010 precipitation event at the south of Saskatchewan prairie (2012)
Journal Article
Chun, K. P., & Wheater, H. S. (2012). An extreme analysis for the 2010 precipitation event at the south of Saskatchewan prairie. Global NEST Journal, 14(3), 311-324. https://doi.org/10.30955/gnj.000890

After a prolonged drought period in the early 2000s, the Canadian prairie experienced a remarkably wet year in 2010. Five stations near the edge of the Saskatchewan boreal forest recorded historically high cumulative precipitation (from April to Sept...
