Article Abstract

This data descriptor reports the main scientific values from General Circulation Models (GCMs) in the Precipitation Driver and Response Model Intercomparison Project (PDRMIP). The purpose of the GCM simulations has been to enhance the scientific understanding of how changes in greenhouse gases, aerosols, and incoming solar radiation perturb the Earth's radiation balance and its climate response in terms of changes in temperature and precipitation. Here we provide global and annual mean results for a large set of coupled atmospheric-ocean GCM simulations and a description of how to easily extract files from the dataset. The simulations consist of single idealized perturbations to the climate system and have been shown to achieve important insight in complex climate simulations. We therefore expect this data set to be valuable and highly used to understand simulations from complex GCMs and Earth System Models for various phases of the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project.

Background: The climate crisis is increasingly recognised as a health crisis, driven in part by the growing frequency and intensity of climate-related hazards, such as heatwaves and wildfires. These hazards can coincide, potentially leading to compound impacts. However, little is known about where and how often such combinations occur globally.

Purpose Of Review: This review focuses on improving the understanding of the effects of anthropogenic aerosols on cloud processes, precipitation, radiation, climate, associated feedback mechanisms, and Earth's energy imbalance (EEI), with a particular emphasis on literature published after the IPCC AR6.

Recent Findings: EarthCARE, an epoch-making satellite mission, has just been launched in 2024. Global climate models (GCMs) have become sophisticated, particularly with respect to the treatment of precipitation, and novel GCMs have been developed for the upcoming Coupled Model Intercomparison Project (CMIP).

Climate change is one of the most significant challenges of the 21st century, particularly its impact on surface water availability in arid and hyper-arid regions within the Euphrates River Basin. This study aims to analyze the impacts of climate change using five global climate models (GCMs) within the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 6 (CMIP6, IPCC 2021). Model outputs were statistically downscaled using Statistical Downscaling Model (SDSM 6.

Drought, characterized by below-average water supply, profoundly affects regional water resources and various ecosystem services. The Palmer Drought Severity Index (PDSI) is a widely used metric for drought monitoring and climate change assessments but suffers from inherent climatic inconsistencies and lacks comprehensive and reliable estimates under changing climate conditions. Here we develop a monthly multi-model and multi-scenario dataset of self-calibrated PDSI for the period 1850-2094, derived from 11 climate model outputs within the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project 6 (PDSI_CMIP6).

Background: Biological invasions pose significant ecological and socio-economic threats globally. Heracleum mantegazzianum (giant hogweed) is an invasive plant, extensively invading Europe and North America. It exerts negative impacts on ecosystems, native vegetation, and public health in the invaded range.
