DOI: 10.1007/s11629-018-5158-0
Abstract: The availability of high-resolution satellite precipitation measurement products provides an opportunity to monitor precipitation over large and complex terrain and thus accurately evaluate the climatic, hydrological and ecological conditions in those regions. The Global Precipitation… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41598-021-98094-6
Abstract: Earth’s climate history is traced through the long-term covariance between the isotopic (δ 18O) composition of archived meteoric waters (groundwater, ice cores) with air temperature (T) and amount of precipitation (P). To assess recent multi-decadal… read more here.
