Non-stationary large-scale statistics of precipitation extremes in central Europe
Extreme precipitation shows non-stationarity, meaning that its distribution can change with time or other large-scale variables. For a classical...

Past megadroughts in central Europe were longer, more severe and less warm than modern droughts
Megadroughts are notable manifestations of the American Southwest, but not so much of the European climate. By using long-term hydrological and...
