Precipitation variability connects mean and extreme precipitation. Despite that both mean and extreme precipitation increase in a warming climate, precipitation variability has not been studied as extensively as the changes in mean and extremes. We diagnose the change in precipitation variability... Show morePrecipitation variability connects mean and extreme precipitation. Despite that both mean and extreme precipitation increase in a warming climate, precipitation variability has not been studied as extensively as the changes in mean and extremes. We diagnose the change in precipitation variability in the CMIP5 multi-model ensemble, supplemented with single-model ensembles and daily station observations. Show less
