Modeling hydro-climatic changes of evapotranspiration over a semi-arid river basin of India
Parametric models of actual evapotranspiration (AET) based on precipitation (P) and potential evapotranspiration (PET) are region-specific and purely climate-induced and limited to represent the hydrological water balances.

Med-CORDEX phase 3: Common protocol for the Baseline runs for the CORDEX-CMIP6 framework
The document presents the common protocol chosen by the Med-CORDEX modelling community for the so-called Baseline runs performed with coupled regional climate system models. The simulations produced will be part of the phase 3 of the Med-CORDEX initiative that corresponds to CORDEX-CMIP6 international framework. The goals of the current document are to

AbstractWe analyse the expected characteristics of drought events in northern Italy for baseline (1971–2000), near (2021–2050), and far (2071–2100) future conditions, estimating the drought spatial extent and duration, the percentage of affected area, and the frequency of drought episodes.

European daily precipitation according to EURO-CORDEX regional climate models (RCMs) and high-resolution global climate models (GCMs) from the High-Resolution Model Intercomparison Project (HighResMIP) [PDF]
In this study, we evaluate a set of high-resolution (25–50 km horizontal grid spacing) global climate models (GCMs) from the High-Resolution Model Intercomparison Project (HighResMIP), developed as part of the EU-funded PRIMAVERA (Process-based ...
