Eleftheriadou and Athanasios Sfetsos and Nikolaos Gounaris}, country = {}, institution = {}, abstract = {The current paper presents an extensive bottom-up framework for assessing building sector-specific vulnerability to climate change: energy supply and demand. The research focuses on the application of downscaled seasonal models for estimating energy performance of buildings in Greece. The ARW-WRF model has been set-up and suitably parameterized to produce downscaled climatological fields for Greece, forced by the output of the CFSv2 model. The outer domain, D01/Europe, included 345 x 345 cells of horizontal resolution 20 x 20 km2 and the inner domain, D02/Greece, comprised 180 x 180 cells of 5 x 5 km2 horizontal resolution. The model run has been setup for a period with a forecast horizon of 6 months, storing outputs on a six hourly basis.}, journal = {International Journal of Environmental and Ecological Engineering}, volume = {9}, number = {7}, year = {2015}, pages = {852 - 855}, ee = {https://publications.waset.org/pdf/10002108}, url = {https://publications.waset.org/vol/103}, bibsource = {https://publications.waset.org/}, issn = {eISSN: 1307-6892}, publisher = {World Academy of Science, Engineering and Technology}, index = {Open Science Index 103, 2015}, }
