Climate change impact on flood and extreme precipitation increases with water availability
H Tabari - Scientific reports, 2020 - nature.com
The hydrological cycle is expected to intensify with global warming, which likely increases
the intensity of extreme precipitation events and the risk of flooding. The changes, however …

Inequitable patterns of US flood risk in the Anthropocene
Current flood risk mapping, relying on historical observations, fails to account for increasing
threat under climate change. Incorporating recent developments in inundation modelling …

Development of an updated global land in situ‐based data set of temperature and precipitation extremes: HadEX3
We present the second update to a data set of gridded land‐based temperature and
precipitation extremes indices: HadEX3. This consists of 17 temperature and 12 precipitation …

Constraining the increased frequency of global precipitation extremes under warming
A key indicator of climate change is the greater frequency and intensity of precipitation
extremes across much of the globe. In fact, several studies have already documented …

Variability conceals emerging trend in 100yr projections of UK local hourly rainfall extremes
Extreme precipitation is projected to intensify with warming, but how this will manifest locally
through time is uncertain. Here, we exploit an ensemble of convection-permitting transient …

Increasing precipitation volatility in twenty-first-century California
Mediterranean climate regimes are particularly susceptible to rapid shifts between drought
and flood—of which, California's rapid transition from record multi-year dryness between …

How fast are the oceans warming?
Climate change from human activities mainly results from the energy imbalance in Earth's
climate system caused by rising concentrations of heat-trapping gases. About 93% of the …
