Severity of Compound Precipitation and Temperature Extreme Events Over Africa at 1.5°C and 2°C Global Warming Levels

open access: yesInternational Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
Results indicate that, an increase in global warming level from 1.5°C to 2°C is likely to induce on the one hand a 3‐fold increase in the frequency of occurrence of dry and warm compound events, and on the other hand a 2‐fold increase in their duration, over West, Central, South‐West, and South‐East Africa, intensifying droughts through reduced ...

Synchronisation of Extreme Precipitation and Sea Surface Temperature Events in the Northern Hemisphere: A Complex Network Approach

open access: yesInternational Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
Using complex network theory and event synchronisation, we find distinct spatiotemporal structures of extreme precipitation and sea surface temperature events across the Northern Hemisphere. Our results show strong local and long‐range connectivity in terrestrial extremes, driven by atmospheric dynamics, contrasting with more localised marine extremes ...

A Continental United States Climatology of Precipitation Whiplash Using a New Event‐Based Definition

open access: yesInternational Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
Precipitation whiplash events have been increasingly studied over the recent decade, however, no studies have considered the spatial coherence of grid points in their examination. Therefore, we developed an algorithm that defines spatially coherent precipitation whiplash events on the subseasonal‐to‐seasonal timescale between 1915 and 2020 which can be

Impacts of Low‐Level Jets on Moisture Transport to the Pantanal, Brazil

open access: yesInternational Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
The moisture transports from the tropics to the subtropics by the low‐level jets (LLJs) east of the Andes crossing the Pantanal region. Four LLJs, east of the Andes, were identified and selected with correspondent Lagrangian moisture transport. The LLJ moisture source regions contribute to Pantanal (~63.5%) and precipitation increased (~30%) during LLJ

Intensification of Flash and Long‐Term Droughts in the Danube River Basin: A Multi‐Scale Analysis Using Satellite‐Derived Evaporative Stress Index and Soil Water Index

open access: yesInternational Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
Analysed drought intensification in the Danube using Evaporative Stress Index (ESI) and Soil Water Index (SWI). Flesh drought detection: developed thresholds for rapid drought detection using ESI‐4Wk and SWI‐40. Multi‐layer analysis: combined atmospheric stress and soil moisture to assess drought impacts.

A Characterisation of Extreme‐Heat Occurrence and Its Trends in Mexico Based on a High Resolution Dataset

open access: yesInternational Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
As Mexico faces rising temperatures and increasing events of extreme heat, improvements in the analysis and characterisation of these phenomena are necessary, as they offer new insights into the spatial variability of such trends and their underlying causes.
