Heavy Precipitation Events in a Warmer Climate: Results from CMIP5 Models
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: n this work, the authors investigate possible changes in the distribution of heavy precipitation events under a warmer climate, using the results of a set of 20 climate models taking part in phase 5 of Coupled Model ...
Hot European Summers and the Role of Soil Moisture in the Propagation of Mediterranean Drought
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Drought in spring and early summer has been shown to precede anomalous hot summer temperature. In particular, drought in the Mediterranean region has been recently shown to precede and to contribute to the development of ...
Projected Changes in Intense Precipitation over Europe at the Daily and Subdaily Time Scales
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: eavy precipitation is a major hazard over Europe. It is well established that climate model projections indicate a tendency toward more extreme daily rainfall events. It is still uncertain, however, how this changing ...
On the Internal Variability of Simulated Daily Precipitation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: limate model simulations are currently the main tool to provide information about possible future climates. Apart from scenario uncertainties and model error, internal variability is a major source of uncertainty, complicating ...
Atlantic Multidecadal Variability and North Atlantic Jet: a multi-model view from the Decadal Climate Prediction Project
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The influence of the Atlantic Multidecadal Variability (AMV) on the North Atlantic storm track and eddy–driven jet in the winter season is assessed via a coordinated analysis of idealised simulations with state-of-the-art ...
