Description
Abstract: This study examined the association between precipitation indices and atmospheric processes
in Southeast Europe using ERA5 land data from 1961 to 2020. The Rx1day intensity index
showed predominantly positive trends in heavy precipitation events, resulting in more intense precipitation
over fewer days in various parts of Southeast Europe, particularly during autumn. These
findings highlight the potential increase in extreme precipitation frequency and intensity due to
ongoing climate change, leading to an elevated risk of flood events. Such insights provide valuable information
for policymakers and stakeholders to adapt to the impacts of extreme precipitation events
