East African population exposure to precipitation extremes under 1.5 °C and 2.0 °C warming levels based on CMIP6 models

East African population exposure to precipitation extremes under 1.5 °C and 2.0 °C warming levels based on CMIP6 models

Understanding population exposure to precipitation-related extreme events is important for effective climate change adaptation and mitigation measures. We analyze extreme precipitation using indices (EPIs), including consecutive dry days (CDD), annual total precipitation, simple daily intensity, and...
