Tropical precipitation extremes: Response to SST‐induced warming in aquaplanet simulations

Abstract Scaling of tropical precipitation extremes in response to warming is studied in aquaplanet experiments using the global Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model. We show how the scaling of precipitation extremes is highly sensitive to spatial and temporal averaging: while instantaneous...
