Spatiotemporal Evolution of Hydroclimatic Variables in the Brazilian Semi‐Arid Region Through the Aridity Index and Susceptibility to Desertification

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
Over the past 60 years, noticeable changes have been observed in the main hydroclimatological variables, driven by both natural and anthropogenic factors. In the context of climate change, such behaviour may adversely affect the state's economic activities, as well as increase the recurrence of extreme events in the region.

Characterisation of Drought and Wet Events in the Paraíba do Sul River Basin—Brazil

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
Trend analysis identified statistically significant reductions in precipitation (at the 5% significance level) at specific pluviometric stations in São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro, while other areas, mainly in Minas Gerais, experienced significant increases in annual and seasonal rainfall, particularly during summer and spring. These significant trends at

Scaling of Short‐Duration, Summer Rainfall Event Temporal Profiles With Warming Over Great Britain

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
Temperature scaling has been used to analyse the temporal profiles of short‐duration, summer rainfall events in Great Britain, for sub‐hourly observed and convection‐permitting climate model (CPM) data. Results show an increase with dewpoint temperature of event total rainfall depth, maximum intensity, concentration and front‐loading.

Detection, Attribution and Projection of Precipitation Structure Changes Over Northwest China

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
The precipitation structure shows a change trend of ‘the frequency of light precipitation decreased and the intensity of heavy precipitation increased’; attribution analysis shows that greenhouse gas forcing (GHG) is the main driving factor of precipitation structure change, and the model underestimates its impact, while aerosol forcing (AER) and ...
