CCI/CLIVAR Workshop to Develop Priority Climate Indices
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Africa remains an area of relatively little analysis of long-term variability and trends in climate extremes. In February 2001 a workshop on developing climate indices using daily climate data was held in Casablanca, ...
A New Daily Pressure Dataset for Australia and Its Application to the Assessment of Changes in Synoptic Patterns during the Last Century
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A high-quality daily dataset of in situ mean sea level pressure was collated for Australia for the period from 1907 to 2006. This dataset was used to assess changes in daily synoptic pressure patterns over Australia in ...
Global Increasing Trends in Annual Maximum Daily Precipitation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: his study investigates the presence of trends in annual maximum daily precipitation time series obtained from a global dataset of 8326 high-quality land-based observing stations with more than 30 years of record over the ...
Changes in Observed Daily Precipitation over Global Land Areas since 1950
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Assessing the Robustness of Future Extreme Precipitation Intensification in the CMIP5 Ensemble
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractA warming climate is expected to intensify extreme precipitation, and climate models project a general intensification of annual extreme precipitation in most regions of the globe throughout the twenty-first century. ...
Consistency of Temperature and Precipitation Extremes across Various Global Gridded In Situ and Reanalysis Datasets
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: hanges in climate extremes are often monitored using global gridded datasets of climate extremes based on in situ observations or reanalysis data. This study assesses the consistency of temperature and precipitation extremes ...
European Climate Extremes and the North Atlantic Oscillation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The authors estimate the change in extreme winter weather events over Europe that is due to a long-term change in the North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) such as that observed between the 1960s and 1990s. Using ensembles of ...
A global, continental and regional analysis of changes in extreme precipitation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This paper provides an updated analysis of observed changes in extreme precipitation using high quality station data up to 2018. We examine changes in extreme precipitation represented by annual maxima of one day (Rx1day) ...
A Multiregion Assessment of Observed Changes in the Areal Extent of Temperature and Precipitation Extremes
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: his study examines trends in the area affected by temperature and precipitation extremes across five large-scale regions using the climate extremes index (CEI) framework. Analyzing changes in temperature and precipitation ...
