Abstract We assess MPI‐ESM 1.2‐LR decadal hindcasts (lead year 1–5) to evaluate the prediction of European compound hot and dry summers with help of North Atlantic sea surface temperature (SST). Using a 64‐member ensemble and detrended data, we isolate extremes driven by internal variability.

Humans are facing challenges from rapid global changes. One prominent issue is regional-scale forest die-off that has occurred on all forested continents and is projected to increase in frequency and extent.

Large-scale climatic oscillations (COs) modulate extreme climate events (ECEs) globally and can trigger the Indian summer monsoons and associated ECEs.

Identifying Energy Balance Drivers of Greenland Ice Sheet Surface Melt Using Causal Discovery
Abstract Greenland Ice Sheet (GrIS) mass loss has accelerated in recent decades, primarily due to enhanced surface melt. Identifying the causal dependencies of surface melt remains challenging with conventional correlations. Using the PCMCI+ ${\text{PCMCI}}^{+}$ causal discovery algorithm applied to CESM2 large‐ensemble simulations and evaluated ...

Informativeness of teleconnections in frequency analysis of rainfall extremes [PDF]
We propose an effective and reproducible framework to assess the informative content of teleconnections (or climate indices) for representing and modeling the frequency regime of rainfall extremes at regional scale.

Enhanced Interdecadal Variability in the WACE and Its Oceanic Drivers
Abstract As the Earth warms, the “warm Arctic–cold Eurasia” (WACE) has changed noticeably, with enhanced interdecadal variability as the Arctic heats up, particularly over the Barents–Kara Sea region. Before the early 1980s, when Arctic warming was relatively weak, WACE was mainly influenced by Pacific temperature patterns (the Pacific Decadal ...

Global Hotspots of Stalling Extratropical Cyclones
Abstract Extratropical cyclones (ETCs) are primary drivers of extreme weather in the mid‐to‐high latitudes. We introduce a new classification of particularly impactful events—“stalling” ETCs—defined by slow movement combined with intense precipitation. Using cyclone tracking data, we find that stalling ETCs cluster systematically along the east coasts ...

Anthropogenic Aerosols Influence Tropical Pacific Sea Surface Temperature Gradient Trends
Abstract The tropical Pacific is warming more in the west than the east. This observed strengthening of the tropical Pacific east‐to‐west Sea Surface Temperature (SST) gradient is poorly reproduced in climate models—a prominent model bias with far reaching global impacts.

Decadal variations in the El Niño‐Southern Oscillation (ENSO)'s influence on Southeast Asian rainfall are modulated by variability in the mean state of atmospheric circulation and moisture anomalies in the Indo‐Pacific Warm Pool (IPWP). Variations in the

The phenomenon of drought in Ethiopia: Historical evolution and climatic forcing
This study examines drought patterns in Ethiopia's 12 major river basins from 1981 to 2018 using the Standardized Precipitation Index (SPI) and the Standardized Precipitation Evapotranspiration Index (SPEI).
