Cover Story: Climate change is a global phenomenon, but precipitation impacts are felt at the local scale. Thus, the availability of future local climate scenarios is crucial, especially in complex orographic areas where precipitation is driven by convective phenomena, which is difficult to detect using standard models. In this study, using an innovative neural network tool, we downscale a high-resolution regional climate model for two stations in the Italian Alps. This approach corrects biases and provides reliable local projections of seasonal precipitation. The results indicate a slight future decrease in precipitation across all seasons, except spring, but increased extremes at the higher elevation station. These findings deepen our understanding of climate change in the Alpine region. View this paper
