Attributions of rainfall anomalies to weather systems and their spatio‐temporal variability in Victoria, southeast Australia are investigated with a multimethod weather type dataset and two popularly used gridded daily rainfall datasets for the period 1979–2015. The rainfall anomalies before, during and after the Millennium Drought (1997–2009) are compared to quantify the temporal variability of rainfall responses to weather t...

The trend and variability in rainfall characteristics that influence annual streamflow of southeast Australia is assessed using two methods, non‐parametric Kendall test and linear slope, and two gridded daily rainfall datasets (SILO and AWAP) and 1,196 station rainfall data for 1971–2021 period. The rainfall anomaly before, during and after the Millennium Drought (1997–2009) is compared to quantify the variability. The results...
