Multiple studies have reported a shift in the trend of warm season rainfall over arid eastern–
central Asia (AECA) around the turn of the new century, from increasing over the second half …

A detailed and well-dated proxy record of summer rainfall variation in arid Central Asia is
lacking. Here, we report a long-term, high resolution record of summer rainfall extracted from …

This study analyzed the temporal precipitation variations in the arid Central Asia (ACA) and
their regional differences during 1930–2009 using monthly gridded precipitation from the …

East Asian summer monsoon precipitation is projected to increase under greenhouse
warming with strong intraseasonal variation. Using a 35-member CESM Large Ensemble …

Precipitation has been considered to be a critical water source for both human livelihoods
and ecosystems in Central Asia. Using observational data and gridded datasets, we studied …

A robust understanding of the sub-seasonal cold season (November–March) precipitation
variability over the High Mountains of Asia (HMA) is lacking. Here, we identify dynamic and …

There is a strong chance that 20th century warming will cause differences in precipitation
distribution, hydrological cycle and effective moisture changes over the globe. Arid central …

Using abundant rainfall gauge measurements and Global Precipitation Mission (GPM) data,
spatial patterns of rainfall diurnal cycles and their seasonality over high mountain Asia …

Changes in climate can be favorable as well as detrimental for natural and anthropogenic
systems. Temperatures in Central Asia have risen significantly within the last decades …

Investigations of the evolution of naturally and anthropogenically driven hydrology in arid
regions are of great significance for hydrological forecasts. Here, we built the past∼ 500 …
