The El Nino-Southern Oscillation and winter precipitation extremes over India [PDF]
Daily rainfall data for the winter season October-December for the long period of 102 years 1901-2002 over southeast peninsular India have been used to study the characteristics of daily precipitation extremes.

A nonstationary index flood model for precipitation extremes in transient regional climate model simulations [PDF]
The generalized extreme value (GEV) distribution has often been used to describe the distribution of daily maximum precipitation in observed and climate model data. The model developed in this paper allows the GEV location parameter to vary over the region, while the dispersion coefficient (the ratio of the GEV scale and location parameters) and the ...

Local‐Regional Similarity in Drylands Increases During Multiyear Wet and Dry Periods and in Response to Extreme Events [PDF]
Climate change is predicted to impact ecosystems through altered precipitation (PPT) regimes. In the Chihuahuan Desert, multiyear wet and dry periods and extreme PPT pulses are the most influential climatic events for vegetation. Vegetation responses are

Eclipse Ice Core Accumulation and Stable Isotope Variability as an Indicator of North Pacific Climate [PDF]
The high accumulation rate and negligible amount of melt at Eclipse Icefield (3017 m) in the Saint Elias Range of Yukon, Canada, allows for the preservation of a high-resolution isotopic and glaciochemical records valuable for reconstruction of climatic ...

Summer soil-precipitation coupling in South America [PDF]
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

Trends and Spatial Patterns of Drought Affected Area in Southern South America [PDF]
Based on 56 rainfall stations, which cover the period 1961–2008, we analyzed the presence of trends in the drought-affected area over southern South America (SSA) at different time scales.
