A weighted ensemble of regional climate projections for exploring the spatiotemporal evolution of multidimensional drought risks in a changing climate

B. Zhang et al.

Summary: This study utilizes Bayesian model averaging to forecast future changes in hydroclimatic regimes over China, revealing that the Bayesian framework improves simulation reliability and accuracy compared to the ensemble mean simulation. It projects substantial increases in drought duration and severity for most areas of China, with the joint risk of drought duration and severity expected to increase under both emission scenarios. The likelihood of extreme droughts is also projected to rise with increasing radiative forcing.

Accelerating flash droughts induced by the joint influence of soil moisture depletion and atmospheric aridity

Yamin Qing et al.

Summary: The joint influence of soil moisture depletion and atmospheric aridity accelerates the rapid onset of flash droughts. While flash droughts are occurring faster, they do not appear to be happening more frequently in most global regions.

Changes in temporal inequality of precipitation extremes over China due to anthropogenic forcings

Weili Duan et al.

Summary: This study used Gini-coefficients to analyze the impact of anthropogenic forcing on the temporal inequality of precipitation in China. The results show a positive influence of anthropogenic activities on precipitation extremes, especially in southern regions. Projections indicate an upward trend in temporal precipitation variability under different scenarios. The findings provide insights for managing water-related disasters.

Accelerated Transition Between Dry and Wet Periods in a Warming Climate

Huijiao Chen et al.

Summary: The consecutive occurrence of meteorological dry and wet extremes has been receiving increasing attention. This study investigates the dynamic evolution of dry-to-wet transitions in response to climate warming. It finds that approximately three-fifths of global land area are projected to experience an accelerated dry-to-wet transition, with Southern Asia facing the most severe transitions.

Variability of West Pacific subtropical high and its potential importance to the Indian summer monsoon rainfall

Roja Chaluvadi et al.

Summary: The study investigates the variability of the West Pacific subtropical high (WPSH) during the peak monsoon season and its association with Indian summer monsoon rainfall (ISMR) based on observational data sets. The results show significant interannual variability in the zonal displacement of the WPSH western flank and intensity at the center, with a long-term trend towards weakening. The WPSH indices exhibit significant correlations with ISMR, affecting rainfall distribution over India.

Amplified risk of spatially compounding droughts during co-occurrences of modes of natural ocean variability

Jitendra Singh et al.

Summary: Spatially compounded droughts across multiple regions can amplify pressures on the global food system, global economy, and reinsurance industry. Our analysis reveals that certain natural ocean variability modes, when co-occurring, can significantly influence the characteristics of compound droughts, emphasizing the importance of considering interactions within the larger climate system rather than focusing solely on individual modes.

Evidence of anthropogenic impacts on global drought frequency, duration, and intensity

Felicia Chiang et al.

Summary: Most studies have focused on the impacts of human activity on mean or extreme climate variables and neglected exploring drought characteristics. The research demonstrates that human activity has increased the frequency, duration, and intensity of drought events globally.

Higher Probability of Occurrence of Hotter and Shorter Heat Waves Followed by Heavy Rainfall

Jiewen You et al.

Summary: Research shows that consecutive heat waves followed by heavy rainfall events are common in China, with shorter and hotter heat waves more likely to trigger heavy rainfall. This meteorological phenomenon is related to atmospheric convection and moisture convergence, and future climate projections indicate these events will occur more frequently and abruptly, increasing the risk of back-to-back heat waves and flash floods.

Intraseasonal Variability of Sea Level in the Western North Pacific

Haolang Liu et al.

Summary: This study investigates the response of sea level in the Western North Pacific to atmospheric Intraseasonal Oscillation modes. The Madden-Julian Oscillation (MJO) and Boreal Summer Intraseasonal Oscillation (BSISO) have significant effects on sea level components in winter and summer, modulating the probability of extreme sea level events. The study highlights the importance of understanding intraseasonal variations of sea level for marine disaster prevention and mitigation.

Increasing precipitation variability on daily-to-multiyear time scales in a warmer world

Wenxia Zhang et al.

Summary: The hydrological cycle intensifies under global warming, leading to increased precipitation and wetter and more variable hydroclimate on approximately two-thirds of Earth's land. The amplification of precipitation variability is particularly prominent in climatologically wet regions, posing an additional challenge to climate resilience.
