Using a soil moisture-based drought identification approach, we show that soil moisture across most of Australia can transition from near-normal to drought conditions within one month’s time. The median duration for non-rapid drought onset, here called a conventional drought, is 30 days, while the rapid onset drought, here called a flash drought, takes around 15 days, indicating that the difference in onset timescales of the two drought types is relatively small. Further, our findings reveal that changes to precipitation and evaporative conditions during a flash drought onset are not very different from those that cause a conventional drought onset. However, flash drought development is associated with larger magnitude of anomalies of those variables leading to drought conditions. These larger anomalies during flash droughts reduce soil moisture rapidly, with a potential to cause damage to vegetation health without sufficient early warning. Although there is a diversity in the mechanisms causing flash droughts, we show here that the majority of the flash droughts are primarily related to the joint influence of abnormally low precipitation and heightened incoming solar radiation (low cloud cover) and large vapour pressure deficits (low relative humidity). The results emphasise the need to update existing drought monitoring systems to account for more realistic timescales of drought onsets for better early warning and preparedness.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48630,"journal":{"name":"Weather and Climate Extremes","volume":"49 ","pages":"Article 100782"},"PeriodicalIF":6.1,"publicationDate":"2025-06-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144296875","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In particular with global climate models, it is virtually impossible to combine high resolution modelling to represent the physical processes adequately together with conducting long simulations to achieve statistical robustness. To complement global modelling efforts, we here present an event oriented system based on pseudo global warming (PGW). The system consists of continuous short-term forecast cycles (3 days long starting each day at midnight) running a small set of 12 km resolution simulations for the present-day climate, a cooler past climate, and three warmer climates. For extreme events these runs are further downscaled to convection permitting resolutions. This allows us to study the spatiotemporal characteristics of convective rainfall and associated phenomena, like wind gusts, hail, and lightning within a climate change context. At the same time, the system has sufficient signal-to-noise to study climate change effects in rare extreme events. We illustrate the application the system with three recent extreme rainfall events (storm Babet in the UK, October 2023; the Italy spring 2023 floods; and the Germany Bavaria, 2024 floods) and discuss strengths and limitations of the method. One additional case with extreme convective wind gusts shows the potential further application of the system. All three rainfall events reveal climate change responses well beyond the commonly expected Clausius-Clapeyron rate, and two cases (in Italy and Germany) reveal a concentration of rainfall in more confined areas, disproportionally enhancing the potential for flash floods in a warming climate.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48630,"journal":{"name":"Weather and Climate Extremes","volume":"49 ","pages":"Article 100781"},"PeriodicalIF":6.1,"publicationDate":"2025-05-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144231556","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Three regional climate models (RCMs) are used to explore differences when downscaling select GCMs. For end of century projections (relative to 1986–2005), the national multi-model annual mean warming is 3.1°C (model range 2.0–3.8°C) across downscaled simulations. Downscaling generally enhances warming over New Zealand relative to the GCMs, with the largest increases across high-elevation regions. There can be important differences in the projections across RCMs, including at national scales for temperature and across local-to-regional scales for precipitation. Averaged across models, annual extreme heatwaves become 3–5°C hotter for most regions. More frequent, intense, and longer duration meteorological drought is projected across northern and eastern regions of both islands.

To address this issue, this study utilizes 1982–2023 high-resolution daily satellite sea surface temperature (SST) data and atmospheric reanalysis products to investigate the relationship between atmospheric circulation modes and MHWs in the JES. The results show that during 1982–2023, the JES experienced severe summer MHWs, primarily driven by intense shortwave radiation linked to atmospheric activities. The East Asia-Pacific (EAP) pattern was found to influence the MHWs in the JES. Notably, we identified an interdecadal change in the relationship between MHWs and EAP patterns around 2001. Before 2001, there was a strong correlation (r = 0.68, <em>p</em> &lt; 0.01) between MHWs in the JES and the EAP, but this relationship weakened significantly in the following years. During the 1982–2000 period, MHWs in the JES were primarily influenced by tropical convection over the South China Sea and the Philippine region, which triggered poleward Rossby wave propagation. Furthermore, since 2001, MHWs have shown a strong correlation with the summer Eurasian (EU) teleconnection, a zonal wave train situated over Eurasia. The correlation between EU and MHWs has reached 0.6 (<em>p</em> &lt; 0.01) during the period from 2001 to 2023, in contrast to a weak negative correlation observed in the preceding EAP dominated period.

This study employs an object-based approach, specifically utilizing a storm-tracking algorithm, to investigate how cold-season storm precipitation in western Canada responds to climate change under a worst-case warming scenario. In the entire study area, peak daily precipitation greater than 50 mm day<sup>−1</sup> within storms significantly increases in both warm and cold seasons. The most extreme storms with highly concentrated precipitation (that is, storms with the precipitation intensity 5 times greater at the storm center compared to the area-averaged intensity), are expected to become more frequent in the future, particularly in the coastal regions and inland lake regions. More importantly, by analyzing the top 20 storms with the highest peak daily precipitation, we found that in the future, lakes will contribute more moisture to the atmosphere through increased evaporation, thereby intensifying the moisture supply and enhancing storm precipitation. Additionally, our findings indicate that future cold-season storms with highly concentrated precipitation may not increase evenly across each month. Warmer lakes in autumn, due to their high thermal inertia, will continue to provide significant local moisture to the atmosphere, which is crucial for the formation of highly concentrated precipitation.
