Abstract The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) first attempted a global
assessment of long-term changes in temperature and precipitation extremes in its Third …

Indices for climate variability and extremes have been used for a long time, often by
assessing days with temperature or precipitation observations above or below specific …

Abstract The Brazilian Cerrado is a global biodiversity hotspot with notoriously high rates of
native vegetation suppression and wildfires over the past three decades. As a result, climate …

Basic meteorological data are essential for evaluating impacts of spatiotemporal variability
in climate forcing on hydrology and agroecosystems. The objective of this work was to …

We analyse seasonal and annual trends of extreme indices of air temperature and
precipitation over Brazil during the period 1961–2018. The main goal is to investigate …

In most of Argentina, the warming since 1901 was a little lower than the global average,
although with strong trends in temperature extremes and in heat waves during the most …

A suite of climate change indices derived from daily temperature and precipitation data, with
a primary focus on extreme events, were computed and analyzed. By setting an exact …

An analysis of climate extremes indices was conducted for maximum temperatures (TMax),
minimum temperatures (TMin), and daily rainfall data (PRCP) over the northeast region of …

As a mountainous country, Nepal is most susceptible to precipitation extremes and related
hazards, including severe floods, landslides and droughts that cause huge losses of life and …

The present paper aims of computing climatology and trend analysis of occurrence and
intensity of extreme events of precipitation in subregions of Northeast Brazil (NEB). We used …
