Storm type effects on super Clausius–Clapeyron scaling of intense rainstorm properties with air temperature

Extreme precipitation is thought to increase with warming at rates similar to or greater than the water vapour holding capacity of the air at ~ 7% °C<sup>−1</sup>, the so-called Clausius–Clapeyron (CC) rate. We present an empirical study of the variability in the rates of increase in pre...
