      Observation‐based and modeling studies have identified the Eastern Mediterranean and Middle East (EMME) region as a prominent climate change hotspot. While several initiatives have addressed the impacts of climate change ...
    • Twenty-First-Century Changes in the Eastern Mediterranean Etesians and Associated Midlatitude Atmospheric Circulation 

      Dafka, StellaORCIDiD; Toreti, AndreaORCIDiD; Zanis, Prodromos; Xoplaki, ElenaORCIDiD; Luterbacher, JuergORCIDiD (Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, 2019)
      The Etesians are the dominant synoptically driven winds observed in the Eastern Mediterranean, usually from late spring to late summer. Due to the complex topography, the Etesians can be very strong and pose significant ...
    • Weather regimes and analogues downscaling of seasonal precipitation for the 21st century: A case study over Israel 

      Hochman, AssafORCIDiD; Kunin, Pavel; Alpert, Pinhas; Harpaz, Tzvi; Saaroni, HadasORCIDiD; Rostkier-Edelstein, DoritaORCIDiD (International Journal of Climatology, 2019)
      Abstract Global climate models provide only partial information on local-scale phenomenon, such as precipitation, primarily due to their coarse resolution. In this study, statistical downscaling algorithms, based on both ...
