There is near unanimous scientific consensus that greenhouse gas emissions generated by
human activity will change Earth's climate. The recent (globally averaged) warming by 0· 5° …

One of the more important questions in hydrology is: if the climate warms in the future, will
there be an intensification of the water cycle and, if so, the nature of that intensification …

An intensified hydrological cycle with global warming is expected to increase the intensity
and frequency of extreme precipitation events. However, whether and to what extent the …

A warming climate is expected to have an impact on the magnitude and timing of river
floods; however, no consistent large-scale climate change signal in observed flood …

The Amazon basin is the largest watershed on Earth. Although the variability of the Amazon
hydrological cycle has been increasing since the late 1990s, its underlying causes have …

Adverse consequences of floods change in time and are influenced by both natural and
socio-economic trends and interactions. In Europe, previous studies of historical flood losses …

Inferring the mechanisms causing river flooding is key to understanding past, present, and
future flood risk. However, a quantitative spatially distributed overview of the mechanisms …

A statistical bias correction methodology for global climate simulations is developed and
applied to daily land precipitation and mean, minimum and maximum daily land …

Human emissions of greenhouse gases are already changing our climate. This paper
provides an overview of the relation between climate change and weather extremes, and …

neither our probability quantification nor our compositing methodology quantifies the
amplitude of extreme ridging events. Because we do not explicitly consider geopotential …
