Evidence that extreme rainfall intensity is increasing at the global scale has strengthened
considerably in recent years. Research now indicates that the greatest increases are likely …

Warming of the climate is now unequivocal. The water holding capacity of the atmosphere
increases by about 7% per° C of warming, which in turn raises the expectation of more …

Abstract Models and physical reasoning predict that extreme precipitation will increase in a
warmer climate due to increased atmospheric humidity,,. Observational tests using …

Precipitation changes can affect society more directly than variations in most other
meteorological observables,,, but precipitation is difficult to characterize because of …

Precipitation extremes are expected to intensify under climate change with consequent
impacts in flooding and ecosystem functioning. Here we use station data and high …

Super-Clausius–Clapeyron Scaling of Extreme Hourly Convective Precipitation and Its Relation
to Large-Scale Atmospheric Conditions in: Journal of Climate Volume 30 Issue 15 (2017) Jump …

Recently, against the backdrop of current climate, several regional studies have investigated
the applicability of the Clausius–Clapeyron relation to the scaling relationship between …

Future change in summertime rainfall under a warmer climate will impact the lives of more
than two-thirds of the world's population. However, the future changes in the duration of the …

Hourly precipitation extremes can intensify with temperature at higher rates than expected
from thermodynamic increases explained by the Clausius‐Clapeyron (CC) relationship (∼ …

Conventional methods for designing infrastructure that is subject to flood risk, such as dams
and levees, assume a stationary design flood. However, observed and potential non …
