Quantile based modelling of diurnal temperature range with the five-parameter lambda distribution

Abstract: Diurnal temperature range is an important variable in climate science that can provide information regarding climate variability and climate change. Changes in diurnal temperature range can have implications for human health, ecology and hydrology, among others. Yet, the statistical literature on modelling diurnal temperature range is lacking. This paper proposes to model the distribution of diurnal temperature range using the five-parameter lambda distribution (FPLD). Additionally, in order to model diurnal t… Show more

“…The project explored methods for handling the non-Gaussian behaviour of daily maximum and minimum temperatures, via the same approximation techniques for non-Gaussian observations as in the R-INLA software. In order to keep the implementation and computational time manageable, the final implemented method did not include this, but aspects of that work can be found in Vandeskog et al (2021b). Instead, a fully Gaussian method was implemented, and an iterative linear solver used to compute the conditional distributions for all the latent variables, reduced to ∼ 1.5 • 10 10 by only estimating the daily mean temperatures, and reducing the spatial resolution to 0.5 degrees.…”
