A 2‐h shift in the timing of evening observations in 1971 resulted in a discontinuity in the estimation of daily means of air temperature and humidity across all climate stations in Austria. This study employs hourly observations to, for the first time, comprehensively quantify and correct this break.

Utilising Benford's Law in the Validation of Precipitation Datasets
This study demonstrates Benford's Law as a robust diagnostic tool for precipitation data integrity. Global monthly precipitation consistently conforms to the law, regardless of origin, while regional data requires appropriate temporal granularity for adherence.

Significant trends of precipitation totals are visible at seasonal (negative in spring and positive in winter) and monthly level. The deepening rainfall deficit in April in Western Sudetes threatens the stabilisation of forest ecosystems, the preservation of biodiversity and significantly limits water resources for economic use.

Estimating water resources is important for regional climate impact analysis and risk estimation. The Middle East and Central Asia have largely reached the limit of sustainably usable water across their river basins and ecosystems. Strategies designed to mitigate environmental risks require a reliable estimation of water availability trends.

Predicting long‐term population viability for an imperiled salamander under future climate changes
We evaluated the long‐term viability of 2 reticulated flatwoods salamander (Ambystoma bishopi) populations in response to multiple future climate change scenarios. We found that there is a high probability of extinction by 2100 under some scenarios, mostly driven by severe droughts and repeated reproductive failure. Conservation actions should focus on
