There has been much attention given to the spatial and temporal characteristics of changes
in mean and extreme rainfall over Australia during the past century. As Australia is the …

Abstract Purpose of Review This review brings together recent research on the structure,
characteristics, dynamics, and impacts of extratropical cyclones in the future. It draws on …

Extratropical cyclones are often associated with heavy precipitation events and can have
major socio‐economic impacts. This study investigates how much of the total precipitation in …

Compound extremes, which involve extremes in two or more meteorological parameters,
have received little attention until now. We present a new global climatology of compound …

Atmospheric rivers (ARs) are narrow corridors within the warm conveyor belt of extratropical
cyclones in which the majority of the poleward water vapour transport occurs. These …

The objective of this study is to cross‐validate 34 Coupled Model Intercomparison Project
Phase 5 (CMIP5) historical simulations of precipitation against the Global Precipitation …

Extratropical cyclones and their associated frontal systems are well known to be related to
heavy precipitation events. Here an objective method is used to directly link extreme …

The role of moisture for extratropical atmospheric dynamics is particularly pronounced within
warm conveyor belts (WCBs), which are characterized by intense latent heat release and …

Natural hazards such as extreme wind, rainfall and ocean waves can have severe impacts
on built and natural environments, contributing to the occurrence of disastrous events in …

Phenomena such as cyclones, fronts and thunderstorms can cause extreme weather in
various regions throughout the world. Although these phenomena have been examined in …
