Hydroclimate volatility on a warming Earth - Nature Reviews Earth & Environment

Jan 8, 2025 | nature.com | Daniel Swain |Andreas F. Prein |John Abatzoglou |Christine Albano |Manuela I. Brunner |Noah S. Diffenbaugh | +2 more

AbstractHydroclimate volatility refers to sudden, large and/or frequent transitions between very dry and very wet conditions. In this Review, we examine how hydroclimate volatility is anticipated to evolve with anthropogenic warming. Using a metric of ‘hydroclimate whiplash’ based on the Standardized Precipitation Evapotranspiration Index, global-averaged subseasonal (3-month) and interannual (12-month) whiplash have increased by 31–66% and 8–31%, respectively, since the mid-twentieth century.
