Air temperature records provide strong evidence of change and variability in the climate system. The sensitivity of temperature to changes throughout the year renders it an ideal object of study when seeking to identify ...

We analysed leaf resistance of 41 Angiosperms belonging to a wide range of plant functional (PFTs) and chorological types (PCTs) to simulated frost and high-temperature extreme events (EE). Leaf resistance was estimated ...

Southern South America (SSA) is an extended region where temperature and precipitation daily extreme events have several impacts on the different socio-economic activities. In this work, their individual and compound ...

The aim of this study was to characterize occurrence of extreme temperature and depth conditions affecting fish community in a shallow lake as result of local climate variability, in turn influenced by the ENSO and PDO ...

Temperature records provide strong evidence of change and variability in the climate system. The sensitivity of temperature to seasonal changes throughout the year makes it an ideal object of study when seeking to identify ...

It is estimated that changes in global weather patterns and natural dynamics can cause a high incidence of extreme events, and therefore increase risk levels. In this study, we review the major climatic and hydrometeorological ...

We analyze historical simulations of variability in temperature and rainfall extremes in the twentieth century, as derived from various global models run informing the Fourth Assessment Report of the Intergovernmental Panel ...

Intraseasonal and interannual variability of extreme wet and dry anomalies over southeastern Brazil and the western subtropical South Atlantic Ocean are investigated. Precipitation data are obtained from the Global ...
