English term or phrase: reflecting non-linear bias in amounts
We will test standard bias correction methods including quintile approaches ***reflecting non-linear bias in amounts***. Furthermore we will explore a novel weather typing approach. We will test the hypothesis that model systematic errors depend on the weather type which can be characterised through EOF analysis.

qui traitent un biais non-linéaire


Explanation:
"Amounts" depends a bit on the context - most likely data/données. But variables, quantities, amounts all could be appropriate.
