Water resources are naturally influenced by weather, topography, geology and environment.
These factors cause difficulties in evaluating future water resources under changing climate …

This study investigates future changes of temperature, precipitation, and associated extreme
events in the MENA region using Regional Climate Model ALADIN-Climate over the …

General circulation models (GCMs), used for climate change projections, should be able to
simulate both the temporal variability and spatial patterns of the observed climate. However …

Highlights•New parametrizations for wet and dry trapezoid edges improved soil moisture
estimates.•Sentinel-2 data revealed spatial heterogeneity of soil moisture and vegetation …

Space-based data have provided important advances in understanding climate systems and
processes in arid and semi-arid regions, which are hot-spot regions in terms of climate …

Abstract Model-derived climate projections have been used by decision-makers for climate
change impact assessment, adaptation, and vulnerability studies at large scale. However …

This study examines the relative contribution of extreme daily precipitation events (RR> 99th
percentile) to accumulated rainfall over the Arabian Peninsula in current and future climates …

A gridded, geographically extended weather type classification has been developed based
on the Jenkinson–Collison (JC) classification system and used to evaluate the …

The present study reports serious climate changes occurred in Egypt by detecting variability
of land surface temperature (LST) over the last decade at selected locations, with varied …

The main advantage of classifying weather types is its systematic use with pressure gridded
values. In this paper, an extensive database covering 74 years was used to determine …
