Advances in understanding large‐scale responses of the water cycle to climate change
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 …

Poleward expansion of tropical cyclone latitudes in warming climates
Tropical cyclones (TCs, also known as hurricanes and typhoons) generally form at low
latitudes with access to the warm waters of the tropical oceans, but far enough off the …

Zonally contrasting shifts of the tropical rain belt in response to climate change
Future changes in the position of the intertropical convergence zone (ITCZ; a narrow band of
heavy precipitation in the tropics) with climate change could affect the livelihood and food …

Robust increase of Indian monsoon rainfall and its variability under future warming in CMIP-6 models
The Indian summer monsoon is an integral part of the global climate system. As its seasonal
rainfall plays a crucial role in India's agriculture and shapes many other aspects of life, it …

Emergence of the modern global monsoon from the Pangaea megamonsoon set by palaeogeography
Geologic evidence and palaeoclimate simulations have indicated the existence of an
extensive, interconnected megamonsoon system over the Pangaea supercontinent …

Response of the intertropical convergence zone to climate change: Location, width, and strength
Abstract Purpose of Review The intertropical convergence zone (ITCZ) is a planetary-scale
band of heavy precipitation close to the equator. Here, we consider the response of the ITCZ …

Past climates inform our future
BACKGROUND Anthropogenic emissions are rapidly altering Earth's climate, pushing it
toward a warmer state for which there is no historical precedent. Although no perfect analog …
