Understanding these changes is crucial for effective water resources management and agricultural planning and food security.
The Extreme Precipitation Dependency Index
The researchers propose the Extreme Precipitation Dependency Index (EPDI), a metric designed to quantify the relative contribution of extreme precipitation to annual rainfall under a warming climate. They say this helps improve understanding of the pattern and supports better planning and decision-making.
The study finds that as extreme precipitation increases over time across most regions…
