Seasonal Predictions and Their Applications in the Mediterranean Region: Part I—Sources of Predictability and Prediction Skill

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
The ability to predict climate fluctuations at seasonal timescales offers significant socio‐economic benefits. However, limited understanding of predictability mechanisms and model errors hinders forecast quality. Recent research has improved forecasting systems and data quality.

Genetic Programming for the Downscaling of Extreme Rainfall Events on the East Coast of Peninsular Malaysia

Atmosphere, 2014
A genetic programming (GP)-based logistic regression method is proposed in the present study for the downscaling of extreme rainfall indices on the east coast of Peninsular Malaysia, which is considered one of the zones in Malaysia most vulnerable to ...

Evapotranspiration Profiles and Trends in Seasonally Dry and Seasonally Humid Tropical Forests

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
Moisture availability and vegetation are decisive factors in ET variations, which are greater in the Atlantic Forest. Precipitation contributes positively to ET variations (r = 0.20–0.67). Significant trends (p < 0.05) in ET were identified, with opposing patterns.

Evaluating downscaled products with expected hydroclimatic co-variances [PDF]

Geoscientific Model Development
There has been widespread adoption of downscaled products amongst practitioners and stakeholders to ascertain risk from climate hazards at the local scale (e.g., ∼ 5 km resolution).

Evaluation of CMIP6 Models in Simulating Australian Monsoon Over Northern Australia

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
The study assesses CMIP6 models for their ability to simulate key aspects of the Australian summer monsoon, including precipitation patterns, wind circulation, monsoon onset/retreat, and ENSO teleconnections. Most models overestimate rainfall, underestimate wind strength, and simulate more uniform ENSO influence across northeast and northwest Australia.

Assessing Past and Future Temperature‐ and Precipitation‐Based Indicators in the Republic of Yemen

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
For the first time in the literature, this work assesses the past and future climatic trends over Yemen, a highly vulnerable country for which science‐based, high‐quality information for the development of climate change adaptation plans was not available until now.

Seasonal Predictions and Their Applications in the Mediterranean Region: Part II—Prediction‐Based Services

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
This review explores climate predictions as actionable decision‐making tools, focusing on the Mediterranean. It examines transforming forecasts into user‐defined information through bias adjustment, downscaling and impact models. Highlighting collaborative EU initiatives, it addresses challenges like limited forecasting skill and data accessibility ...

User‐Relevant Climate Indices and Associated Uncertainties From Transient Convection‐Permitting Climate Model Projections

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
A transient ensemble of convection‐permitting climate simulations is used to compute bias‐corrected user‐relevant climate indices for Germany under recent and future climate conditions, both considering high spatial resolution and uncertainty estimations. For high temperature indices, a clear increase is observed, for example, for hot days and tropical

Projected 21st Century Changes in Precipitation and Temperature Over Italy Using CMIP6 CMCC‐CM2‐SR5 Model and COSMO‐CLM Dynamical Downscaling

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
This study evaluates the COSMO‐CLM regional climate model over Italy under CMIP6 scenarios. Compared to its driving global model, COSMO‐CLM reduces temperature biases by 50%–75% and better represents precipitation and extremes, adding critical mesoscale detail.
