Robust Projections of Changing Precipitation Evenness in a Warming Climate by Hsin Hsu, Stephan Fueglistaler

“…Changes in temporal evenness of local‐daily precipitation show a complex geographic pattern. However, particularly over land, we show that a simple theoretical scaling explains this complexity to result from increased precipitation intensity scaling at about the Clausius‐Clapeyron rate, and a local balance between changes in annual‐mean precipitation and dry‐day fraction. …”
