Accurate runoff projections are vital for developing climate adaptation strategies, yet significant uncertainties persist. The commonly employed approaches to constrain these uncertainties rely on the stationarity of climate biases and runoff sensitivity, which may not hold for climate‐sensitive regions (e.g., semi‐arid regions). This study investigates the validity of the stationarity assumption across 29 CMIP6 models, encomp...

Urbanization alters local climates and exacerbates urban heat islands. Understanding and addressing the impacts of urbanization on regional high impact weather systems is critical. This study examines the feedback loop between urbanization and heatwaves (HWs) in inland and coastal Indian cities of Hyderabad and Bhubaneswar which have been profoundly affected by urbanization and temperature extremes. Observational analysis reve...

An accurate quantification of fluxes from heterogeneous sites and further bifurcation into contributing homogeneous fluxes is an active field of research. Among such sites, fragmented croplands with varying surface roughness characteristics pose formidable challenges for footprint analysis. We conducted two flux monitoring experiments in fragmented croplands characterized by two dissimilar surfaces with objectives to: (i) eval...

This study aims to (i) prepare a premonsoon thunderstorms database, (ii) understand the thunderstorm frequency, duration and intensity and (iii) composite analysis of dynamic and thermodynamic processes related to thunderstorms over India. The thunderstorm associated rainfall varies across India. Hence, a percentile‐based approach is implemented with the integrated multi‐satellite retrievals for global precipitation measuremen...
