Anomalous atmospheric circulation and large winter floods in six subregions of the southwestern United States
EXTRACT (SEE PDF FOR FULL ABSTRACT):We examined atmospheric circulation conditions conducive to occurrence of winter floods that exceed the 10-year peak discharge on rivers in six hydroclimatic subregions in Arizona, southern Utah, Nevada, and California. ... This relationship between flooding and broad-scale atmospheric patterns in the modern record will aid in paleoclimatic interpretations of paleoflood records over the last few thousand years.
