Current global warming causes a change in atmospheric dynamics, with consequent
variations in the rainfall regimes. Understanding the relationship between global climate …

Temporary changes in precipitation may lead to sustained and severe drought or massive
floods in different parts of the world. Knowing the variation in precipitation can effectively …

1 km gridded estimates of daily and monthly rainfall for Great-Britain and Northern Ireland
(together with approximately 3000 km2 of catchment in the Republic of Ireland) from 1890 to …

Accurate long‐term flood predictions are increasingly needed for flood risk management in a
changing climate, but are hindered by the underestimation of climate variability by climate …

Impact-based, seasonal mapping of compound hazards is proposed. It is pragmatic,
identifies phenomena to drive the research agenda, produces outputs relevant to …

Droughts are initiated and significantly maintained by precipitation deficits. This study
demonstrates that meteorological droughts in Australia are strongly related to changes in the …

Seasonal precipitation forecasting is highly challenging for the northwest fringes of Europe
due to complex dynamical drivers. Hybrid dynamical–statistical approaches offer potential to …

Water resource forecasting generally centres on understanding hydrological variability over
coming months or years, so that water managers can prepare for extremes such as droughts …

Proper understanding of rainfall variability is of essential importance for meteorological and
hydrological modelling. This study examines whether a variety of nonlinear dynamic …

Drought events are influenced by a combination of both climatic and local catchment
characteristics. In Great Britain the North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) has long been …
