Since extreme precipitation impacts society on small scales (ie, a few kilometers and
smaller, it is worthwhile to explore extreme precipitation trends in localized regions, such as …

Extreme rainfall events often lead to excessive river flows and severe flooding for Pacific
Island nations. Fiji, in particular, is often exposed to extreme rainfall events and associated …

Extreme precipitation has been increasing in the United States over the past century. In light
of the associated impacts and possible linkages to climate change, this topic has garnered a …

Total and extreme precipitation in Hainan Island was investigated in this study, based on
consistent meteorological data for the period 1962–2005. Results show that tropical …

Precipitation time series for 935 long‐term US climate stations were analyzed to identify
daily extreme events associated with tropical cyclones (TCs). Extremes were defined as …

Almost every year, north Atlantic tropical cyclones (TCs) are responsible for significant
socioeconomic losses across the Mid-Atlantic USA. However, the extent to which TC activity …

Precipitation extremes such as heavy rainfall and floods are of great interest for climate
scientists, particularly for small islands vulnerable to weather phenomena such as …

The Philippines is exposed to tropical cyclones (TCs) throughout the year due to its location
in the western North Pacific. While these TCs provide much‐needed precipitation for the …

The authors evaluate the contribution of tropical cyclones (TCs) to daily precipitation
extremes over land for TC-active regions around the world. From 1998 to 2012, data from …

Abstract Global Historical Climate Network (GHCN) data are used to characterize changes
in large-scale fall extreme precipitation in the mid-Atlantic and the northeast United States …
