360). Lead time is expressed as the number of days from the time of prediction, such that a 0-day lead time means that streamflow predictions are for the current day (nowcasts). The AI model improved over (was at
Floods are one of the most common natural disasters, with a disproportionate impact in developing countries that often lack dense streamflow gauge networks1. Accurate and timely warnings are critical for mitigating flood risks2, but hydrological simulation models typically must be calibrated to long ...

A warmer planet doesn’t just raise temperatures. From wildfires to floods, here's how the climate is changing.
Liang ShanbaiandLi Huaqirespectively took the Horn of Africa and the Yangtze River Basin as examples to elaborate on the global drought under extreme climate change.Cao Mengfurther shared the prediction of extreme hydrological ...
These days, bringing up the weather – especially if you work in wine – is almost too stressful and controversial for polite conversation. Extreme weather events caused by climate change – spring frosts after bud break, wildfires, droughts, floods, searing heat and humidity, frogs falling from...
Researchers say human-caused climate change dealt people an average of nearly six weeks of extra extreme heat in 2024, while also fueling more destructive storms. Dec 27, 2024 Death toll from historic flooding in Spain soars to at least 158 Floods sparked by torrential rain in Spain's Va...
while pluvial flooding results from local watershed rainfall-runoff processes typically associated with high-intensity, short-duration storms10. In large-scale flood models, each hazard source is typically evaluated separately and then merged to create a combined exposure prediction. This independent modeli...
leading to a rise in sea levels. Low-lying islands and coastal areas are at high risk of being submerged, displacing millions of people. Extreme weather events like heatwaves, droughts, floods, and hurricanes have become more frequent and intense, wreaking havoc on agriculture, infrastructure, an...
Examines the science and arguments of global warming skepticism. Common objections like 'global warming is caused by the sun', 'temperature has changed naturally in the past' or 'other planets are warming too' are examined to see what the science really
