Introduction

I The need to homogenize observational series before itsuse to assess climate variability emerged long time agoand many methodologies, some of them implemented incomputer packages, have been developed since then.

I Action COST ES0601 HOME was very useful to promotediscussion meetings of homogenization specialists and tointer-compare the performances of their methods andsoftware developments.

I Yet, as many of these programs have been improved sincethe end of that Action, new benchmarking exercises areneeded to compare their current performances.

Introduction

The results of a preliminary comparison are still shown athttp://www.climatol.eu/DARE/testhomog.html, but the Spanishproject MULTITEST (Multiple verification of automatic softwareshomogenizing monthly temperature and precipitation series)aims at updating and improving those benchmarkingexperiments in various ways:

I More realistic temperature networksI Inclusion of precipitation networks with different climatic

characteristics (Temperate, Mediterranean and Monsoonal)I More realistic inhomogeneitiesI More tested homogenization methods

Yet only automatic procedures can be tested to achievesignificant results with a reasonable effort!

Benchmarking methodology

I Data benchmarks are composed by 100 homogeneousseries with 60 years of monthly values without any missingdata. From them, 100 tests are made by:

I Randomly sampling a subset of the series (true solution)I Applying inhomogeneities to them (problem series)I Homogenizating them (backward adjustent) by different

methods (results)I Comparing the results with the true solutions, computing

RMSE, trend differences, and other metricsI Note that as these methods are applied in an automatic

way, they are run with default settings, and their resultsmay not be as optimal as when properly tuned to eachproblem network.

Methodology

Tested homogenization programs (those that we could run incompletely automatic mode):

I Climatol 3.0 (Guijarro), with constant and variablecorrections

I ACMANT 3.0 (Domonkos), versions for temperature andprecipitation (sinusoidal and irregular seasonalities)

I MASH 3.03 (Szentimrey)I RHTestV4 (Wang & Feng), absolute and relative, with or

without quantile adjustment. (Average series were given asreference!)

I USHCN v52d (Menne & Williams)(We could not compile the current version yet)

I HOMER 2.6 (Mestre et al.), with different iterationstrategies

Temperatures: networks & inhomogeneities

Generation of master networks Tm1, Tm2 and Tm3:I 100 random points on a 4 x 3◦ lon-lat areaI Mean monthly homogenized temperatures from Valladolid

(Duero basin, Spain) acting as seed seriesI Closest point is assigned the same series plus white noise

from C · N (0,1.5)I Coefficient C = 0.18,0.30,0.65 yield three master

networks with decreasing correlation between stations,called Tm1, Tm2 and Tm3

I Series shifted to account for simulated elevation, 2◦C/100yrtrend added, and annual oscillation varied ±20%

Inhomogeneities (mode ’rs’): Random number of shifts(5/100yr) with random size from N (0,1) and sinusoidalseasonality of random amplitude from N (0,0.7)

Precipitations

Three monthly precipitation networks were built simulatingthree different climates: Atlantic temperate (PEir),Mediterranean (PMca) and Monsoonal (PInd).

Real series from Ireland, Majorca and SW India (gridded) wererespectively used to derive variograms, gamma coefficients andfrequency of zeroes, which were used to compute theirsynthetic series by means of the R package gstat, preservingthe spatial correlation structure.

A random number of shifts (5/100yr) were introduced asfactors drawn from N (1,0.2) (in mode ’r’: no seasonalperturbation were applied to these factors)

Conclusions

I The performance of the methods can vary depending onthe characteristics of both the network and theinhomogeneities

I Hence the importance of showing results from differentnetworks that can be representative of different realclimates

I Unrealistically designed experiments also help in detectingthe strengths and weaknesses of the methods

I Precipitation appears as probably being the most difficultvariable to homogenize (many zeroes and a very biasedPDF)

I The graphics displaying the results of the tests, as well asother characteristics of the software packages shown inhttp://www.climatol.eu/tt-hom/index.html, will facilitate theuser to choose the method that better suits his needs

Page 18: Comparison of homogenization packages applied to monthly

Future work

Ongoing and future work includes:I Test the influence of non sinusoidal seasonalities in the

shiftsI Test missing data tolerance of new packagesI Try longer series with missing data mimicking those in the

HOME benchmarkI Put all results and scripts in a web page to allow

reproducibility

Out of the scope of the MULTITEST project:

Why not take advantage of the implemented comparison scriptsto test the performances of the methods with daily data?

It would only require:I Choose homogeneous daily networks

(Those developed by R. Killick?)I Adapt the scripts to these networksI Test the methods

(Ideally developers would provide automatic scripts that readthe problem network and yield its homogenized version. In thisway, they could test different settings of their programs.)

Acknowledgements

Project MULTITEST (CGL2014-52901-P) is funded by the SpanishMinistry of Economy and Competitiveness.

Thanks to Met Eireann for for providing the Irish monthly precipitationseries that served as model to synthesize the network of AtlanticTemperate precipitations. Mallorca monthly precipitations were takenfrom AEMET data bases, and monthly precipitations from SW India,gridded at 0.5◦ resolution, were obtained from the GlobalPrecipitation Climate Center (GPCC).

Many thanks for the advice received on the settings needed to runMASH (Tamas Szentimrey) and HOMER (Gregor Vertacnik, John Colland Stefanie Gubler).
