Understanding changes in precipitation with climate change over wet and dry land
Observed precipitation increased moderately in both wet and dry regions over the past 60 years, contradicting the wet-gets-wetter, dry-gets-drier (WWDD) mechanism. This study uses the perturbation atmospheric energy budget to understand the projected increase in precipitation over dry and wet land w...
