Climate Analysis of Extreme Precipitation

Analysis of extreme precipitation: variability, frequency, trend, and intensity

📢 Prof. Ivana Tošić from the Faculty of Physics, University of Belgrade, and a member of the EXTREMES team, presented preliminary research results that will become part of our comprehensive catalog. The analysis focuses on ☔ extreme precipitation through indices such as the number of days with precipitation exceeding 10 mm (RR10), 20 mm (RR20), and 30 mm (RR30), as well as maximum one-day (RX1day), three-day (RX3day), and five-day (RX5day) precipitation totals. In addition to a spatial analysis of the variability of these indices across Serbia, trends for the period 1961–2020 were presented, including detailed analyses for specific cities.

⚠️ The results indicate a positive increasing trend 📈, particularly pronounced in episodes of more intense precipitation.
