Precipitation Extremes Under Climate Change [PDF]
Current 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.

Changes in persistent and non-persistent extreme precipitation in China from 1961 to 2016
Advances in Climate Change Research, 2018 In this study, based on daily gage precipitation data of 2480 stations from 1961 to 2016, the summer (June–August) extreme precipitation event was defined using the 95th percentile, and the changes in persistent (last for at least 2 d) and non-persistent

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

Influence of urbanization on hourly extreme precipitation over China
Environmental Research Letters, 2022 The impact of rapid urbanization on the spatiotemporal pattern of short-term extreme precipitation in China remains unclear at the subnational scale. In this study, we present a general framework that measures urbanization-induced variation in hourly ...

Tropical Precipitation Extremes
Journal of Climate, 2013 AbstractClassifying tropical deep convective systems by the mesoscale distribution of their cloud properties and sorting matching precipitation measurements over an 11-yr period reveals that the whole distribution of instantaneous precipitation intensity and daily average accumulation rate is composed of (at least) two separate distributions ...
