Assessing the Impacts of Extreme Precipitation Change on Vegetation Activity
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 ...

Frequency of extreme precipitation increases extensively with event rareness under global warming
The intensity of the heaviest extreme precipitation events is known to increase with global warming. How often such events occur in a warmer world is however less well established, and the combined effect of changes in frequency and intensity on the ...

Extreme precipitation on consecutive days occurs more often in a warming climate
Extreme precipitation occurring on consecutive days may substantially increase the risk of related impacts, but changes in such events have not been studied at a global scale.

This study investigates the possible impact of urbanization on the summertime extreme precipitation–temperature (P–T) relationship in East Asia. The local climate in three megacity regions—Guangdong in China, Seoul/Gyeonggi in Korea, and Tokyo in Japan ...

Improved simulation of extreme precipitation in a high-resolution atmosphere model [PDF]
Climate models often underestimate the magnitude of extreme precipitation. We compare the performance of a high-resolution (∼0.25°) time-slice atmospheric simulation (1979–2005) of the Community Earth System Model 1.0 in representing daily extreme ...

Rising Precipitation Extremes across Nepal [PDF]
As a mountainous country, Nepal is most susceptible to precipitation extremes and related hazards, including severe floods, landslides and droughts that cause huge losses of life and property, impact the Himalayan environment, and hinder the socioeconomic development of the country.
