Extreme precipitation is projected to become more frequent and more intense due to climate change and associated thermodynamical effects
Research gap analysis derived from 4 earth_science papers in our local library.
The gap
ABSTRACT Extreme precipitation is projected to become more frequent and more intense due to climate change and associated thermodynamical effects, but the local response of atmospheric circulation under future climate scenarios remains uncertain due mainly to dynamical differences.
Evidence profile
Sourced from the limitations section and stated research gap and abstract and future-work section of the source papers, classified as general, drawn from work published between 2024 and 2026, spanning 4 journals. Those papers have been cited 14 times in total.

There is a need to understand the physical processes responsible for the exceptional intensity of extreme rainfall events in North China. The future risk of similar events is uncertain and needs to be assessed using climate models. The study aims to fill this gap by examining the 2025 North China extreme rainfall event and assessing the future risk of similar events.
