Extratropical Cyclones and their Associated Precipitation: Understanding, Model Evaluation, and Future Projections

风暴及其相关的锋面系统产生了中纬度地区的大部分降水。这个项目将结合几种强大的分析技术来回答一些与风暴有关的降水的基本问题和目前尚未回答的问题，包括极端降水。最先进的气候模型是我们预测未来气候变化的主要工具，然后将进行评估，以确保它们能够捕捉到已阐明的与风暴有关的降水的基本过程。这对于增加对风暴变化及其相关降水预测的信心，从而向水资源管理者提供更好的信息至关重要。

Storms and their associated frontal systems are responsible for producing most of the precipitation in mid-latitudes. This project will combine several powerful analysis techniques to answer some fundamental and currently unanswered questions on storm-related precipitation, including the extremes. State-of-the-art climate models, our main tool in projecting future climate changes, will then be evaluated to ensure they are able to capture the essential processes of storm-related precipitation that have been elucidated. This is essential to increase confidence in the projection of storm changes and their related precipitation, thereby providing better information to water managers.
