Stepwise‐clustered heatwave downscaling and projection for Guangdong Province

Abstract Heatwave events over Guangdong have attracted recent attention under changing climate conditions. It is desired to explore the future changes of heatwave due to its associated consequences on society economy and environment. In this study, a stepwise‐clustered heatwave downscaling approach (i.e., SCHW) was developed for the projection of HWs in Guangdong. The heatwave indicators (occurrence, duration, magnitude, intensity, frequency, …
