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

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 …

An extreme (weather or climate) event is generally defined as the occurrence of a value of a

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 …

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 …

Observations on glacier extent from Ecuador, Peru and Bolivia give a detailed and
unequivocal account of rapid shrinkage of tropical Andean glaciers since the Little Ice Age …
