Abstract:An analysis of concurrent extreme events of continental precipitation and Integrated Water Vapor Transport (IVT) is crucial to our understanding of the role of the major global mechanisms of atmospheric moisture transport, including that of the landfalling Atmospheric Rivers (ARs) in extratropical regions. For this purpose, gridded data on CPC precipitation and ERA-5 IVT at a spatial resolution of 0.5 • were used to analyse these concurrent events, covering the period from Winter 1980/1981 to Autumn 2017.
