We review the challenges and future perspectives of regional climate model (RCM), or
dynamical downscaling, activities. Among the main technical issues in need of better …

This paper surveys the current state of knowledge regarding large-scale meteorological
patterns (LSMPs) associated with short-duration (less than 1 week) extreme precipitation …

Climate models have continued to be developed and improved since the AR4, and many
models have been extended into Earth System models by including the representation of …

Climate extremes have profound implications for urban infrastructure and human society, but
studies of observed changes in climate extremes over the global urban areas are few, even …

We find a consistent and statistically significant increase in the intensity of future extreme
winter precipitation events over the western United States, as simulated by an ensemble of …

Extreme precipitation events over India have resulted in loss of human lives and damaged
infrastructures, food crops, and lifelines. The inability of climate models to credibly project …

The performance of reanalysis-driven Canadian Regional Climate Model, version 5
(CRCM5) in reproducing the present climate over the North American COordinated …

Understanding future changes in the frequency, intensity, and duration of extreme events in
response to increased greenhouse gas forcing is important for formulating adaptation and …

An increase in short duration precipitation extremes poses challenges for storm water
design in rapidly urbanizing India. The recent Paris Agreement aims to limit the global mean …

Climate change impact on rainfall intensity–duration–frequency (IDF) curves at the
Apalachicola River basin (Florida Panhandle coast) is assessed using an ensemble of …
