A pan-South-America assessment of avoided exposure to dangerous extreme precipitation by limiting to 1.5 °C warming

A pan-South-America assessment of avoided exposure to dangerous extreme precipitation by limiting to 1.5 °C warming

This study investigates the future changes in dangerous extreme precipitation event in South America, using the multi-model ensemble simulations from the HAPPI experiments. The risks of dangerous extreme precipitation events occurrence, and changes in area and population exposure are quantified. Our...
