英文摘要 | East-Central Asia is one of the most vulnerable and sensitive regions to climate change, and the variability of extreme precipitation attracts great attention due to the large population and the importance of its economy. Here, three special runs with the Community Earth System Model (CESM) are used to project the changes in representative extreme precipitation indices (Rx1day, Rx5day, R95p, SDII) over East-Central Asia under the 1.5 degrees C and 2 degrees C Paris Agreement limits. The results indicate that Rx1day and Rx5day will increase by 28% and 15%, respectively, under the 1.5 degrees C warming level relative to the historical period (1971-2000). Most areas over East-Central Asia are projected to experience an accelerated increase in response to a further 0.5 degrees C warming. Specifically, humid areas (HAs) are projected to experience a greater increase in R95p annual days and area fraction, whereas arid and semiarid areas (ASAs) may have threefold higher risks. The proportion of extreme precipitation in total will increase similar to 10% in most HAs in response to the 0.5 degrees C additional warming. Holding global warming at 1.5 degrees C instead of 2 degrees C reduces the occurrence of R95p annual days by similar to 3 days/year in humid areas and similar to 1 day/year in ASAs. For SDII, most HAs will experience 0.2-0.6 mm/day and 0.2-0.4 mm/day increases in 1.5 degrees C or 2 degrees C warming limits, especially in Southeast China and the Himalayas. Therefore, limiting global warming to under 1.5 degrees C is beneficial to reducing the occurrence and associated impact of precipitation extremes in East-Central Asia. |
