Characterising Vento Norte Downslope Windstorms and Their Thermal Impacts in Southern Brazil
International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.Using 20 years of hourly INMET observations in Santa Maria (southern Brazil), we identify 189 Vento Norte (VNOR) downslope windstorms, ~72% in winter, marked by abrupt warming, drying and strong northerly gusts. Across five biometeorological indices (TEFW, TDI, THI, HDI, Humidex), VNOR hours consistently show significantly higher thermal discomfort ...

Spatial and Temporal Patterns of Extreme Hourly Rainfall in the Hawaiian Islands
International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.The extreme rainfall trends in Hawaiʻi were revealed by hourly rainfall data: Across islands, Kauaʻi and Hawaiʻi Island had larger events at a return period. Annual maximum series of 15 gauges showed significant positive trends. While extreme rainfall trends show increases or decreases regionally, the trends varied with rainfall duration.

A Zonal‐Meridional Projection Method for Quantifying Global Land‐Ocean Moisture Transport
International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.We present a physically consistent and computationally efficient method to quantify global coastal moisture transport by projecting vertically integrated moisture flux onto signed land–ocean boundary segments. The signed projection naturally distinguishes ocean‐to‐land inflow and land‐to‐ocean outflow without explicit directional classification ...

Low‐Intensity Precipitation Dominates Peninsular Spain (1961–2022)
International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.Spatial analysis across Spain shows a shift in precipitation regimes (1961–2022) toward more frequent low‐intensity precipitation and reduced high‐intensity events, with localised increases in heavy precipitation along some coastal areas. This redistribution—captured through changes in precipitation frequency (RF) and volumetric contribution (RC ...

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.Heatwaves have intensified under a warming climate, producing substantial environmental and societal impacts. This study characterizes heatwave regimes in two contrasting regions of Mexico using a percentile‐based threshold and a Poisson distribution framework.

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.Evaluating historical precipitation trends is complicated by interactions between variability in atmospheric circulation and thermodynamic forcing. This study assesses 1901–2023 UK winter precipitation trends in UK Climate Projections 2018 (UKCP18) global climate models using dynamical adjustment to separate circulation‐driven and non‐dynamical ...

Spatiotemporal Characteristics and Synoptic Patterns of Dry‐Hot Winds (Sukhoviys) in Ukraine
International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.This study analyses dry‐hot winds, or sukhoviys, a recurrent phenomenon during the warm season across Ukraine that contributes to rapid moisture loss from soil and vegetation. The activity of sukhoviy events was assessed using the introduced Sukhoviy Station Index, accounting for their meteorological characteristics and frequency of occurrence.

Intercomparison of a Regional Climate Model Ensemble for Selected European Catchments
International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.This study analyzes a regional climate model ensemble for water cycle and water resource research with two models. Results show that ICON generally outperforms TSMP1 simulations, mainly with 2‐m temperature and precipitation. These findings serve as a baseline evaluation that shows how key structural differences influence the model skill.

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.Conceptual hydroclimatic pathway linking the concurrent negative North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) phase and weak La Niña conditions to extreme February rainfall and flash flooding in Northwest Africa. ABSTRACT The winter of 2025–2026 in Morocco exhibited a rapid hydroclimatic transition from prolonged drought to widespread flooding, representing an ...
