Storyline description of Southern Hemisphere midlatitude circulation and precipitation response to greenhouse gas forcing [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
As evidence of climate change strengthens, knowledge of its regional implications becomes an urgent need for decision making. Current understanding of regional precipitation changes is substantially limited by our understanding of the atmospheric ...

Variation Characteristics and Correlation between Vegetation Phenology and Extreme Precipitation in Indo-China Peninsula

open access: yesRedai dili, 2023
The Indo-China Peninsula lies in a tropical monsoon climate zone and is prone to extreme weather events, including droughts and floods. Against the backdrop of global warming, the frequent occurrences of extreme precipitation affect the typical growth ...

Assessing the Impacts of Extreme Precipitation Change on Vegetation Activity

open access: yesAgriculture, 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 ...

How well do CMIP5 climate simulations replicate historical trends and patterns of meteorological droughts? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Assessing the uncertainties and understanding the deficiencies of climate models are fundamental to developing adaptation strategies. The objective of this study is to understand how well Coupled Model Intercomparison-Phase 5 (CMIP5) climate model ...

Evaluation of Soil Moisture Retrieval from the ERS and Metop Scatterometers in the Lower Mekong Basin [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The natural environment and livelihoods in the Lower Mekong Basin (LMB) are significantly affected by the annual hydrological cycle. Monitoring of soil moisture as a key variable in the hydrological cycle is of great interest in a number of Hydrological ...

Extreme Historical Droughts in the South-Eastern Alps — Analyses Based on Standardised Precipitation Index [PDF]

open access: yesActa Geophysica, 2016
Droughts are natural phenomena affecting the environment and human activities. There are various drought definitions and quantitative indices; among them is the Standardised Precipitation Index (SPI). In the drought investigations, historical events are poorly characterised and little data are available.

Spatial and temporal characteristics of extreme precipitation in Ganjiang River Basin in the past 50 years

open access: yes暴雨灾害, 2020
The annual maximum (AM) and peak over threshold (POT) series were used to estimate the spatial and temporal characteristics of extreme precipitation over the past 50 years in Ganjiang River Basin based on the daily precipitation data from 13 hydrometric ...

Errors in climate model daily precipitation and temperature output: time invariance and implications for bias correction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
When correcting for biases in general circulation model (GCM) output, for example when statistically downscaling for regional and local impacts studies, a common assumption is that the GCM biases can be characterized by comparing model simulations and ...
