20th-century global warming disrupts rainfall patterns in Australia, Europe, and eastern North America, causing increased rainfall variability.
A new study published in Science reveals that global warming is disrupting rainfall patterns, particularly over Australia, Europe, and eastern North America, with increased rainfall variability since the 1900s. The research by Chinese scientists and the UK Met Office shows a systematic increase in rainfall variability due to human-induced climate change, primarily through greenhouse gas emissions, leading to more intense downpours and longer dry periods.
