In this video, SAROSH ALAM GHAUSI investigates why observed extreme rainfall patterns in warm regions often contradict theoretical expectations. By correcting

#EGU25: April is here, and its time for EGU’s General Assembly from 27 April-2 May 2025. We will share our latest insights on energetic constraints shaping maximum temperatures, temperature v…

We were back in India, spending a week at the IIT Roorkee to teach a short course on the Second Law in the Earth System Science, giving talks and having discussions at IIT Gandhinagar, IIT Bombay, IISER Pune and IITM. Find out more on what we did and discussed, look at a few photos, and some related papers in this blogpost.

Observation-based extreme precipitation-temperature sensitivities reveal increases in heavy rainfall across continents after adjusting for cloud-radiative effects, consistent with changes in atmospher...

Rainfall events are expected to intensify everywhere because warmer air can hold more moisture. However, testing this relationship with observations across warmer regions and periods sometimes seem…

Extreme rainfall is usually defined as the heaviest 5% of rain events in a specific area. As global air temperatures rise, scientists expect extreme rainfall to increase.
