Abstract This study presents a detailed analysis of the CORDEX‐FPS multi‐model ensemble convection‐permitting climate simulations over greater Alpine region. These cover 10‐year time slices and were obtained by downscaling global model (GCM) projections, using regional models (RCMs) kilometer‐scale (CPMs). Our area agrees with previous studies in terms projected summer precipitation changes for end century, particular regarding decrease mean increases hourly intensities. In addition, we...
Abstract. Ongoing climate change and associated glacier retreat is causing rapid environmental change, including shifts in high-alpine landscapes. Glacier lakes, which can form topographical depressions left behind by retreat, are prominent features within such Whilst model-based estimates for the number area of future lakes exist various mountain regions across world, exact morphology temporal evolution remain largely unassessed. Here, we leverage a recently released, measurement-based...
This study presents the detailed analysis of a novel and first-of-its-kind 10-year multi-model ensemble kilometer-scale convection-permitting climate model (CPM) simulations over Greater Alpine Region. The were obtained by downscaling global (GCM) projections using regional models (RCMs) further to kilometer scale (CPMs) . evaluates CPMs assesses their added value with respect RCMs regarding basic heavy precipitation characteristics. In addition, this projected changes for end century. is...

<p>With the ongoing, rapid glacier retreat, high-alpine landscapes are poised to change drastically over coming decades. The newly exposed areas will not only give rise new environments that can be eventually colonized by plants and organisms, but also characteristic landforms. Amongst these, future lakes forming in topographical depressions left behind have already been focus of earlier studies. interest these features is given a number factors, ranging from ecological...
