Heat and Cold Waves in Brazil: An ERA5‐Based Analysis of Trends and Seasonality (1980–2024)

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
This study uses ERA5 reanalysis data to assess changes in extreme heat and cold events across Brazil from 1980 to 2024. Results reveal a sharp increase in heatwave frequency and a general decline in coldwave occurrences, though regional variations are substantial.

Seasonal Variability of Precipitating Systems in Four Radar Domains of Northeast Brazil

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
This study analyzes the climatology and evaluates how the physical aspects of precipitating systems are influenced by the dry and wet seasons in Northeast Brazil, highlighting seasonal variations in the frequency, size, intensity, and duration of these systems in the regions of Natal, Maceió, Petrolina, and Salvador.

Assessing Past and Future Temperature‐ and Precipitation‐Based Indicators in the Republic of Yemen

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
For the first time in the literature, this work assesses the past and future climatic trends over Yemen, a highly vulnerable country for which science‐based, high‐quality information for the development of climate change adaptation plans was not available until now.

Dry–Hot Compound Events Driving the 2024 Pantanal Wildfires

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
Extreme wildfires in the Pantanal in 2024 were driven by a cascade of heatwaves, rainfall deficits and the absence of the annual flood pulse. These conditions dried soils and rivers, enhanced fuel accumulation and enabled early and intense fire outbreaks.

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 ...

Spatiotemporal Droughts Propagation and Direct Driving Variables Under Climate Change Projections: A Case Study of Tunisia

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
Drought spatiotemporal propagation and direct driving variables are assessed at multiple time steps with high spatial resolution using various drought indices (SPI, SPEI and SPDI) and entropy based mutual information under an ensemble of climate change projections over Tunisia. ABSTRACT Projecting drought occurrence and spatiotemporal propagation under
