Theoretically, precipitation extremes will increase at a rate of 6–7% with temperature increasing, namely the Clausius-Clapeyron relationship. However, many gauge observations suggest a peak structure of the relationship between precipitation extremes a
History of Low Hourly Wage in Middle Age At each wave, participants answered the question: “What is your hourly wage rate for regular work time?” Although there is no agreed upon definition of low wage, a fairly common approach6 computes the hourly wage rate for full-time, full-year wor...
45. With 2021–2022 gas prices, consumer energy bills could be reduced by €22 billion across Europe, and an average UK household would save around £200 annually by lowering building temperatures by 1 °C. Thermostat adjustments should therefore be considered by policy-makers as an important...
Our initial database of dailyPgauge observations comprised 149,095 gauges worldwide and was compiled from (i) the Global Historical Climatology Network-Daily (GHCN-D) dataset (ftp.ncdc.noaa.gov/pub/data/ghcn/daily/)61(102,954 gauges), (ii) the Global Summary Of the Day (GSOD) dataset (...
Figure 8d compares the ensemble-mean rate of decay in the raw data to that for the detrended data, which shows the exceedance of records through time solely due to natural variability (Supplementary Figure S14). The number of records is consistently higher in the raw data, with the ratio of...
where RGPCPis the monthly rain rate of GPCP for a given pixel. The 2.5° weights grids must then be bilinearly interpolated back to 0.04° spatial resolution for the next stage. Our experiments showed that some locations with very low monthly rainfall values, such as high latitudes and very ...
Figure 1c illustrates the effect of long-term weather change rate c1. An increase in c1 results in a clear increase in total daily solar irradiance. The effect of the short period weather changes b2 is shown in Figure 1d. Similar to the case of b1, b2 represents the number of short-...
