Climate change and water.
TL;DR: The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Technical Paper Climate Change and Water draws together and evaluates the information in IPCC Assessment and Special Reports concerning the impacts of climate change on hydrological processes and regimes, and on freshwater resources.
Journal ArticleDOI
Climate Change and Global Wine Quality
TL;DR: This article showed that the impacts of climate change are not likely to be uniform across all varieties and regions, and that future climate change will exceed a threshold such that the ripening of balanced fruit required for existing varieties and wine styles will become progressively more difficult.

Assessment of observed changes and responses in natural and managed systems
TL;DR: Abeku et al. as discussed by the authors presented a survey of the work of Abeku and his colleagues, including Isabelle Cote (Canada), Mark Dyurgerov (USA), Martin Edwards (UK), Kristie L. Ebi (US), Nicole Estrella (Germany), Donald L. MacMynowski (USA) and Patricia Morellato (Brazil), Jeff T. Price (USA).

Changes in Australian pan evaporation from 1970 to 2002
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors report a decrease in pan evaporation rate over the last 30 years across Australia of the same magnitude as the Northern Hemisphere trends (approximately − 4m m a −2 ).
Journal ArticleDOI
On climate variability in Northeast of Brazil
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors analyzed the time series (annual period and dry and wet-season) of eight climatic variables to ascertain the existence of climate variability in Northeast of Brazil.

Extreme events in a changing climate: Variability is more important than averages
Richard W. Katz,Barbara G. Brown +1 more
TL;DR: This article showed that the frequency of such events is relatively more dependent on any changes in the variability (more generally, the scale parameter) than in the mean of climate, and that this sensitivity is relatively greater the more extreme the event.

TL;DR: A simple statistical model of daily precipitation based on the gamma distribution is applied to summer (JJA in Northern Hemisphere, DJF in Southern Hemisphere) data from eight countries: Canada, the United States, Mexico, the former Soviet Union, China, Australia, Norway, and Poland as mentioned in this paper.
