climate models have increased our understanding of key feedbacks and large scale processes in the climate system (e.g. Stainforth et al. (2005)), the real power of very large ensembles lies in the potential to simulate extreme events which, by their definition, are rare. To obtain statistics

Under such circumstances, the supplier of the original hardware/software or the user's Internet service provider should be contacted. 7.2

. Wang et al., (2018) focus on how the summer NAO (SNAO) may regulate East Asian summer rainfall. Whilst this region may lie at the eastern and northern extremity of the South Asia region, Figure 15 offers an insight into a plausible mechanism that could apply to other regions further west and/or south

This $31 million UNDP project contributes to efforts to cope with climate change to reduce floods in low lying coastal areas due to rising sea levels and severe weather phenomena through establishment of an early warning and monitoring system to monitor changes in climate and sea levels
