Robust spatially aggregated projections of climate extremes
Many climatic extremes are changing1–5, and decision-makers express a strong need for reliable information on further changes over the coming decades as a basis for adaptation strategies. Here, we demonstrate that for extremes stakeholders will have to deal with large irreducible uncertainties on local to regional scales as a result of internal variability, even if climate models improve rapidl...
متن کاملDetectability of anthropogenic changes in annual temperature and precipitation extremes
This paper reports on a study of temperature and precipitation indices that may be suitable for the early detection of anthropogenic change in climatic extremes. Anthropogenic changes in daily minimum and maximum temperature and precipitation over land simulated with two different atmosphere-ocean general circulation models are analyzed. The use of data from two models helps to assess which cha...
متن کاملChanges in Temperature and Precipitation Extremes in the IPCC Ensemble of Global Coupled Model Simulations
Temperature and precipitation extremes and their potential future changes are evaluated in an ensemble of global coupled climate models participating in the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) diagnostic exercise for the Fourth Assessment Report (AR4). Climate extremes are expressed in terms of 20-yr return values of annual extremes of near-surface temperature and 24-h precipitatio...
متن کاملRecent Changes in Temperature and Precipitation Extremes in an Ecological Reserve in Federal District, Brazil
The main objective of this study is to provide information on trends, in local scale, using records of daily temperature and precipitation of a single weather station in an ecological reserve of the savanna biome in Federal District/Brazil, analyzing different extreme climatic indices. The extreme temperature indices have identified that the days are getting warmer and the nights are cooler at ...
متن کاملSpatially Penalized Regression for Extremes Dependence Analysis and Prediction: Case of Precipitation Extremes
The inability to predict precipitation extremes under nonstationary climate remains a crucial science gap. Precipitation is not a state-variable within climate models, exhibits space-time heterogeneities, and is subject to thresholds and intermittences. Atmospheric variables in the spatiotemporal neighborhood, like temperature, humidity and updraft velocity, are often better predicted than prec...
