Abstract: An observational analysis of Mediterranean Sea water cycle variability based on recently available datasets provides new insights on the long-term changes that affected the region since the 1960s. Results indicate an overall ...

Abstract: River discharge across the Mediterranean catchment basin is investigated by means of an extensive dataset of historical monthly time series to represent at-best discharge into the sea. Results give an annual mean river ...

Abstract: In an approach termed the PER method, where the key input variables are observed precipitation P and runoff R and estimated evaporation, the authors apply the basin water budget equation to diagnose the long-term variability ...

Abstract: The ozone evolution in the lower stratosphere of the Southern Hemisphere during the period 5?10 August 1994 is analyzed. The analysis focuses on the ozone ?collar? (the band of maximum values in ozone mixing ratio around ...

Abstract: The hydrological cycle in the Mediterranean region is analyzed focusing on climatology and interannual to interdecadal variability, in particular long-term changes related to the well-established North Atlantic Oscillation ...

Abstract: his paper summarizes and synthesizes the research carried out under the NOAA Drought Task Force (DTF) and submitted in this special collection. The DTF is organized and supported by NOAA?s Climate Program Office with the ...
