Abstract Short-duration (1–3 h) rainfall extremes can cause serious damage to societies
through rapidly developing (flash) flooding and are determined by complex, multifaceted …

Approximately 10 years ago, convection‐permitting regional climate models (CPRCMs)
emerged as a promising computationally affordable tool to produce fine resolution (1–4 km) …

In July 2021 extreme rainfall across Western Europe caused severe flooding and substantial
impacts, including over 200 fatalities and extensive infrastructure damage within Germany …

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 …

One of the most important impacts of a future warmer climate is the projected increase in the
frequency and intensity of extreme rainfall events. This increasing trend in extreme rainfall is …

A large number of recent studies have aimed at understanding short-duration rainfall
extremes, due to their impacts on flash floods, landslides and debris flows and potential for …

Intensification of short-duration rainfall extremes and implications for flood risk: current state of
the art and future directions | Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society A: Mathematical …

Heavy precipitation over western Germany and neighboring countries in July 2021 led to
widespread floods, with the Ahr and Erft river catchments being particularly affected …

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

Land use and land cover changes, population growth, urban sprawl and climate change are
expected to augment the pressure on natural environment and on existing infrastructure. As …
