Skilful nowcasting of extreme precipitation with NowcastNet. [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 2023
AbstractExtreme precipitation is a considerable contributor to meteorological disasters and there is a great need to mitigate its socioeconomic effects through skilful nowcasting that has high resolution, long lead times and local details1–3. Current methods are subject to blur, dissipation, intensity or location errors, with physics-based numerical ...

A relation between extreme daily precipitation and extreme short term precipitation [PDF]

open access: yesClimatic Change, 2010
The Royal Netherlands Meteorological Institute (KNMI) has published the KNMI’06 climate scenarios in 2006. These scenarios give the possible states of the climate in The Netherlands for the next century. Projections of changes in precipitation were made for a time scale of 1 day.

Extreme precipitation events

open access: yesWIREs Water, 2022
AbstractThe effect of increased populations concentrated in urban areas, coupled with the ongoing threat of climate change, means that society is becoming increasingly vulnerable to the effects of extreme precipitation. The study of these events is therefore a key topic in climate research, in their physical basis, in the study of their impacts, and in

Characteristics of Extreme Hourly Precipitation during Flood Season in Gansu Province from 1990 to 2019

open access: yesGaoyuan qixiang, 2023
Based on hourly precipitation data of 68 meteorological stations in Gansu Province from 1990 to 2019, the temporal and spatial distribution characteristics and long-term trend of hourly extreme precipitation during main flood season (May-August) in Gansu

The dependence of precipitation and its footprint on atmospheric temperature in idealized extratropical cyclones [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Flood hazard is a function of the magnitude and spatial pattern of precipitation accumulation. The sensitivity of precipitation to atmospheric temperature is investigated for idealized extratropical cyclones, enabling us to examine the footprint of ...

Downscaling precipitation extremes [PDF]

open access: yesTheoretical and Applied Climatology, 2009
A new method for predicting the upper tail of the precipitation distribution, based on empirical–statistical downscaling, is explored. The proposed downscaling method involves a re-calibration of the results from an analog model to ensure that the results have a realistic statistical distribution.

The diurnal nature of future extreme precipitation intensification [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Short‐duration, high‐impact precipitation events in the extratropics are invariably convective in nature, typically occur during the summer, and are projected to intensify under climate change.

Spatiotemporal variation in precipitation during rainy season in Beibu Gulf, South China, from 1961 to 2016 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
The spatiotemporal variation in precipitation is an important part of water cycle change, which is directly associatedwith the atmospheric environment and climate change.

Changes in Extreme Precipitation in the Mekong Basin

open access: yesAdvances in Meteorology, 2020
Extreme precipitation events can trigger many natural disasters like floods, mudslides, and landslides. Understanding historical changes in extreme precipitation is critical for disaster prevention and risk assessment.
