Casanueva et al. (2014) Variability of extreme precipitation over Europe and its relationships with teleconnection patterns
This study evaluates the trends of three precipitation extreme indices (consecutive dry/wet days, CDD/CWD; and contribution of very wet days, R95pTOT) and accumulated precipitation (RR) across Europe, analyzing their relationships with large-scale atmospheric and oceanic teleconnection patterns. The research reveals significant and often opposite seasonal trends in precipitation extremes across Europe, strongly modulated by various teleconnection patterns, with R95pTOT showing a consistent positive trend linked to the Atlantic Multidecadal Oscillation (AMO).
