Contributions of Extreme and Non‐Extreme Precipitation to California Precipitation Seasonality Changes Under Warming

Geophysical Research Letters, 2019
AbstractChanges in seasonality of extreme precipitation have important implications for flood and fire hazards and water resources. Here we explore the contributions of extreme and non‐extreme precipitation in the sharpened wet season in California under warming and the underlying mechanisms. Modeling evidence shows that increased extreme precipitation

Pattern change of precipitation extremes in Svalbard

Scientific Reports
Abstract Besides global attention on extreme precipitation, a limited research has been done in the Arctic due to constraints of data availability. In this backdrop, we attempt to analyze extreme precipitation events at three Arctic stations (Bjørnøya, Ny-Ålesund, and Svalbard Lufthavn) in Svalbard using extreme value theory.

Spatiotemporal Variations of Extreme Precipitation Events in the Jinsha River Basin, Southwestern China

Advances in Meteorology, 2020
Climate extremes have attracted widespread attention for their threats to the natural environment and human society. Based on gauged daily precipitation from 1963 to 2016 in four subregions of the Jinsha River Basin (JRB), four extreme precipitation ...

Extreme precipitation changes in relation to urbanization

npj Natural Hazards
The rising frequency of extreme precipitation is a major concern linked to climate change, commonly associated with increased atmospheric water vapor due to global warming. In densely populated areas, intense rainfall has particularly severe impacts, with urbanization amplifying extreme weather through changes in land surface and local atmospheric ...

Decadal Spatial-Temporal Variations in the Spatial Pattern of Anomalies of Extreme Precipitation Thresholds (Case Study: Northwest Iran)

Atmosphere, 2017
This study focused on decadalvariations of extreme precipitation thresholds within a 50-year period (1961–2010) for 250 stations of Iran’s northwest. The 99th percentile was used as the threshold of extreme precipitation.

Constraining the projections of tropical extreme precipitation with radiation–precipitation relationship

Environmental Research Letters
Abstract Over the tropics, a robust statistical relationship between outgoing longwave radiation ( R ) and precipitation ( P ) is observed, linked to the cloud-radiative effect (CRE). To quantify this R
