The Added Value Index: A new metric to quantify the added value of regional models

A metric to quantify the value added by high‐resolution models is introduced. It is based on a characteristic spatial distribution of skill rather than the averages of skill values. Normal distribution functions are fit to the model skill distribution of coarse‐ and fine‐resolution models, and a new...
