Atmosphere, 2023 In recent years, global climate change causes more extreme precipitation events in Lancang-Mekong River Basin (Lancang-Mekong Basin). It leads to the increase of rainstorm and flood risk, which poses a threat to the flood control safety of Lancang-Mekong

Precipitation in a warming world: Assessing projected hydro-climate changes in California and other Mediterranean climate regions. [PDF]
, 2017 In most Mediterranean climate (MedClim) regions around the world, global climate models (GCMs) consistently project drier futures. In California, however, projections of changes in annual precipitation are inconsistent. Analysis of daily precipitation in

Climatological features and trends of extreme precipitation during 1979–2012 in Beijing, China [PDF]
Proceedings of the International Association of Hydrological Sciences, 2015 In this study, three kinds of hourly precipitation series with the spatial resolution of 0.1° are used to analyze the climatological features and trends of extreme precipitation during the period of 1979–2012 in Beijing, China. The results show that: (

Assessing the Impacts of Extreme Precipitation Change on Vegetation Activity
Agriculture, 2021 Extreme climate events frequently have more severe effects on terrestrial vegetation activity than long-term changes in climate averages. However, changes in extreme climate events as well as their potential risk on vegetation activity are still poorly ...

Summer soil-precipitation coupling in South America [PDF]
, 2011 The soil moisture memory contributes to atmospheric variability and seasonal predictability and could potentially affect the development of the South American Monsoon System. The relative importance of the local land surface feedbacks and the large-scale

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.
