Seasonality, Intensity, and Duration of Rainfall Extremes Change in a Warmer Climate

Seasonality, Intensity, and Duration of Rainfall Extremes Change in a Warmer Climate

Abstract Precipitation extremes are expected to intensify under climate change with consequent impacts in flooding and ecosystem functioning. Here we use station data and high‐resolution simulations from the WRF convection permitting climate model (∼4 km, 1 h) over the US to assess future changes in...
