Understanding the Characteristics of Precipitation and Their Response to Climate Change

In this thesis, I present three projects that target different characteristics of atmospheric precipitation that are not well understood. First, I focus on precipitation extremes in the extratropics and aim to understand changes in vertical velocity which control the spatial variation in the climate...
