Scaling of Precipitation Extremes over a Wide Range of Climates Simulated with an Idealized GCM
Extremes of precipitation are examined in a wide range of climates simulated with an idealized aquaplanet GCM. The high percentiles of daily precipitation increase as the climate warms. Their fractional rate of increase with global-mean surface temperature is generally similar to or greater than tha...
