Precipitation forecasting, encompassing high-resolution regional and accurate intensity forecasting, has long been a central focus in the artificial intelligence (AI) field. Generally, AI models ...

The heavy rainfall that drenched San Antonio and caused deadly flash flooding also brought some relief to drought-stricken water supplies — although not nearly enough to fill them back to normal ...

While the study finds that a weakening AMOC may buffer dry season rainfall loss in the Amazon, it also highlights the urgent need to reduce emissions as broader climate risks continue to escalate.

This study proposes an innovative generative adversarial network (GAN)-based downscaling model for precipitation, named PSRGAN, which aims to enhance the spatial resolution of meteorological data ...

The explanation for Mediterranean Europe’s modest rainfall and long periods of drought – in contrast to the damp, green landscapes of northern Europe – lies in general atmospheric currents.

A study of weather on a mountain in Greece reveal that bioparticles in the sky may drive fluctuations in rainfall patterns more broadly.

Heavier and more persistent rainfall is expected with climate change because the atmosphere holds more moisture as it warms.

Across the globe, monsoon rainfall switches on in spring and off in autumn. Until now, this seasonal pattern was primarily understood as an immediate response to changes in solar radiation.

Extreme rainfall: A long-standing hypothesis on temperature dependence finally settled? Date: April 28, 2025 Source: University of Potsdam Summary: Flash floods resulting from extreme rainfall ...

Both factors -- precipitation and nutrients -- directly affect plant biomass production. The study found that plant biomass is closely related to mean annual precipitation in grasslands.

For years, scientists have warned of heightened risks of extreme storms due to climate change, and those storms have already begun devastating communities. Weather forecasting will play an ...

Particle precipitation is an important energy input to the planets’ upper atmospheres, causing atmospheric heating, ionization, and emission. It also perturbs the planetary ionospheres and ...
