Journal ArticleDOI
Rising Mediterranean Sea Surface Temperatures Amplify Extreme Summer Precipitation in Central Europe.
Claudia D. Volosciuk,Douglas Maraun,Douglas Maraun,Vladimir Semenov,Vladimir Semenov,Natalia Tilinina,Sergey Gulev,Sergey Gulev,Mojib Latif,Mojib Latif +9 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that Mediterranean Sea surface warming amplifies Central European precipitation extremes, with the largest increase located southeast of maximum precipitation for both simulated heavy events and historical Vb-events.

Record Balkan floods of 2014 linked to planetary wave resonance.
Lisa Stadtherr,Lisa Stadtherr,Dim Coumou,Vladimir Petoukhov,Stefan Petri,Stefan Rahmstorf,Stefan Rahmstorf +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors study the climatic and meteorological factors that influenced the catastrophic flooding in the Balkans, where they focus on large-scale circulation and show that the Vb cyclone was unusually stationary, bringing extreme rainfall for several consecutive days, and that this situation was likely linked to a quasi-stationary circumglobal Rossby wave train.
Journal ArticleDOI
Large-scale heavy precipitation over central Europe and the role of atmospheric cyclone track types.
TL;DR: The analysis of the top 50 precipitation events revealed an outstanding heavy precipitation period from 2006 to 2011 in the Czech Republic, but no gradual long‐term change, and suggests that Atlantic winter cyclones are most relevant for heavy precipitation.

Climatology of Vb cyclones, physical mechanisms and their impact on extreme precipitation over Central Europe
Martina Messmer,Martina Messmer,Juan José Gómez-Navarro,Juan José Gómez-Navarro,Christoph C. Raible,Christoph C. Raible +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a cyclone detection and tracking tool is applied to the ERA-Interim reanalysis (1979-2013) to identify prominent Vb situations and evaluate case-to-case precipitation amounts and assess consistency between the two data sets.

A millennial-long record of warm season precipitation and flood frequency for the North-western Alps inferred from varved lake sediments: implications for the future
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present an annually-resolved record of warm season precipitation and summer flood frequency from the varved (annually laminated) sediments of proglacial Lake Oeschinen (46°30′N−7°44′E, 1580m, NW Swiss Alps) back to AD 884.
