Long-term variability of extreme precipitation with WRF model at a complex terrain River Basin.
Article in Scientific reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Global warming has profound effects on precipitation patterns, leading to more frequent and extreme precipitation events over the world. These changes pose significant challenges to the sustainable development of socio-economic and ecological environments. This study evaluated the performance of the new generation of the mesoscale Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model in simulating long-term extreme precipitation events over the Minjiang River Basin (MRB) of China from 1981 to 2020. We calculated 12 extreme precipitation indices from the WRF simulations and compared them with observations. The spatio-temporal variations of extreme precipitation were further analyzed in terms of intensity, frequency, and duration. The results indicated that the WRF model can appropriately reproduce the spatial distribution of extreme precipitation indices with acceptable biases. The performance is significantly better for intensity and frequency indices compared to duration indices. Except for PRCPTOT and R10mm, WRF accurately captures the interannual variations of extreme precipitation. Meanwhile, the results of the pre-whitening Mann-Kendall (PWMK) test suggested that WRF can identify significant increasing trends in extreme precipitation, particularly for R95p, R99p, and R50mm. This study provides valuable insights for extreme precipitation forecasting and warning in other mountainous regions.
