TL;DR: The European CORDEX (EURO-CORDEX) initiative as discussed by the authors is a large voluntary effort that seeks to advance regional climate and Earth system science in Europe, which includes the design and coordination of ongoing ensembles of regional climate projections of unprecedented size and resolution.

TL;DR: This paper investigated the scaling of precipitation extremes with temperature in the Mediterranean region by assessing against observations the present day and future regional climate simulations performed in the frame of the HyMeX and MED-CORDEX programs.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors analyzed the ability of the RCMs used in these projects to reproduce the observed characteristics of medicanes, and the impact of increased resolution and air-sea coupling on their simulation.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors focused on dry spell analysis have received much less attention, compared with the ones related to large precipitation conditions, and the modeling results indicate that future climate conditions point to more severe hydrological stresses over several regions in the Iberian Peninsula.

TL;DR: In this article, 5 regional climate model simulations were analyzed in terms of their representation of precipitation and temperature extremes over Spain, and the performance of the models depends on the climatic characteristics of the subregions.
