Driven by global warming, the emerging climate crisis has in recent years included a rise in the frequency and intensity of extreme rain events, leading to loss of life and of property. A new research study, led by Dr. Assaf Hochman and by doctoral student Tair Plotnik at the Institute of Earth Sciences at the Hebrew University, investigated the factors influencing our ability to forecast extreme rain events, towards developing tools that can improve the forecasting of such events in the very near future and help prevent disasters.
