Abstract Short-duration (1–3 h) rainfall extremes can cause serious damage to societies
through rapidly develo** (flash) flooding and are determined by complex, multifaceted …

Globally, thermodynamics explains an increase in atmospheric water vapor with warming of
around 7%/° C near to the surface. In contrast, global precipitation and evaporation are …

This study analyzes and forecasts the long-term Spatio-temporal changes in rainfall using
the data from 1901 to 2015 across India at meteorological divisional level. The Pettitt test …

It is well understood that India is largely exposed to different climate extremes including
floods, droughts, heat waves, among others. However, the exposure of co-occurrence of …

Atmospheric rivers often cause extreme precipitation at landfall, leading to floods. However,
the underlying physical mechanism of atmospheric rivers and their linkage with flooding in …

In this study, we provide a comprehensive analysis to identify and quantify spatial patterns of
heavy, very heavy and extremely heavy rainfall and their trends that have emerged during …

In this study, we analysed the variability and trends in annual as well as seasonal rainfall in
the seven states of North East India for the period 1901–2020, using non-parametric tests …

India experienced several unprecedented floods in the recent decades. The increase in the
extreme rainfall events (EREs) is the primary cause for these floods, manifesting its societal …

In general, the impact of two different connected extreme events is noticed on the same
duration and spatial area. However, the connected extreme events can have footprint over …

The frequency of extreme precipitation is increasing globally and poses a significant threat
to human and natural systems. At the regional scale, these changes are becoming …
