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

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.

Precipitation Extremes Under Climate Change [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Climate Change Reports, 2015
The response of precipitation extremes to climate change is considered using results from theory, modeling, and observations, with a focus on the physical factors that control the response. Observations and simulations with climate models show that precipitation extremes intensify in response to a warming climate.
