In a 30 - yr historical evaluation period, Climdex indices computed from 800 - m simulated values display reduced error relative to local station observations than those from the 10 - km dataset,
with the greatest reduction in error
occurring at high - elevation sites for

Your political views have nothing whatsoever to do
with the physical facts of increasing CO2 due to our emissions, the warming that will cause (~ 1.1 C / doubling), the feedbacks that will
occur (to a total of about 3C / doubling), crop movements, sea level rise, ocean acidification,
precipitation changes, etc..
Overall, the scientists found that
precipitation extremes of different kinds will
occur,
with only small changes in the mean
precipitation across the rainy season.
The number of stations reflecting a locally significant increase in the proportion of total annual

In other words, if these yield reductions resulting from greenhouse gas — induced climate change were superimposed on the yield reductions that might
occur during a particularly dry period arising from the region's characteristic
precipitation variability, they would be higher and comparable
with the results from the Morocco National Communication.

As the climate of the Pacific Northwest warms, more winter
precipitation is falling as rain, compared
with historical averages.2 With declining snowpack in Oregon's Cascade Mountains, peak stream flows are occurring earlier, and summer flows are declining.2 These changes are expected to continue as heat - trapping emissions grow, putting more stress on already endangered salmon that return to the Columbia and other rivers in the region to spa

(D) The unconditional probability of a — 1.5 SD seasonal
precipitation anomaly (blue curve) and the conditional probability that a — 1.5 SD seasonal
precipitation anomaly
occurs in conjunction
with a 1.5 SD seasonal temperature anomaly (red curve), for each of the four 3 - mo seasons.
During 1995 — 2014, 6 of the 8 moderately dry years produced 1 - SD drought (Fig. 1A),

For example, ours is an implicit approach that analyzes the temperature and
precipitation conditions that have historically
occurred with low PMDI years, but does not explicitly explore the physical processes that produce drought.
Taken together, the observed record from California suggests that (i)
precipitation deficits are more likely to yield 1 - SD PMDI droughts if they
occur when conditions are warm and (ii) the occurrence of 1 - SD PMDI droughts, the probability of
precipitation deficits producing 1 - SD PMDI droughts, and the probability of
precipitation deficits co-occurring
with warm conditions have all been greater in the past two decades than in the preceding century.

precipitation anomaly co-occurs
with a positive temperature anomaly has increased recently,

While ARs are responsible for a large fraction of heavy
precipitation in that region during winter, much of the rest of the orographic

with tops just high enough to pass the mountain barrier.
We further find that years
with extreme geopotential heights in the climate models exhibit a Triple R - like regional maximum in the northeastern Pacific, and are associated

occurred during 2013 - 2014.
«
With an early arrival of monsoon - like atmospheric circulation in June, the heavy
precipitation that
occurred in northern India was a once - in - a-century event; however, analyses of observed and simulated June
precipitation provide evidence that human - caused climate change has increased the likelihood of such an event.»
