International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.A transient ensemble of convection‐permitting climate simulations is used to compute bias‐corrected user‐relevant climate indices for Germany under recent and future climate conditions, both considering high spatial resolution and uncertainty estimations. For high temperature indices, a clear increase is observed, for example, for hot days and tropical

Spatiotemporal Changes in Precipitation Concentration in the Atlantic‐European Region
International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.This study analyses changes in precipitation concentration using ERA5 and E‐OBS datasets. Gini index as a measure of precipitation concentration revealed a gradual expansion of areas with increasing unevenness in precipitation distribution across the Atlantic‐European region since 1961.

Projected Evolution of Climatic Aridity in Spain: Robust Signals and Model Uncertainties
International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.This study examines the projected evolution of climatic aridity in Spain throughout the 21st century, using the UNEP Aridity Index and CMIP6 simulations under different emission scenarios and global warming levels. Despite model biases, results show a general increase in aridity across the country, particularly in southern regions and the Canary ...

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.This study, by examining a typical stratospheric intrusion event that occurred in North China from 30 to 31 July 2021, found that the event led to a sharp increase in near‐surface ozone concentrations by 23 ppbv within 36 h, accounting for 40% of the total observed ozone levels, with localised peaks exceeding 30 ppbv.

Heatwave Characteristics and Trends Across Eight Japanese Cities
International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.Heatwaves occur with high likelihood across Japan. Strong north–south contrasts exist in heatwave characteristics. Southern locations experience more frequent, longer, and more intense heatwaves. Since 1955 there has been an increase in heatwave frequency, duration, and cumulative heat, particularly for nocturnal heatwaves. ABSTRACT This study provides

Multi‐Country‐Multi‐City Characterisation of Heat Stress and Exposure in Africa
International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.This study provides the first continent‐wide, grid‐specific assessment of heat stress trends in Africa, revealing a sharp rise in multi‐scale extreme heat episodes and shifting population exposure. Findings highlight urgent implications for urban planning and climate adaptation.
