  bibo_abstract:
  - Research to detect changes in precipitation variables has become a topic of particular
    interest to understand modifications in water resources availability. The review
    is focused on the Italian territory, outlining the “state of the art” of changes
    in precipitation regime through a review of 54 published studies on observed rainfall
    trend analyses, in the period 1999–2018. The aim is to combine a large body of
    knowledge in a single review and to explain the main patterns of rainfall changes
    occurred in Italy over the last decades. The analysis focused on the Total Precipitation
    (TP) and the number of Wet Days (WDs) indices at the annual and seasonal scale.
    A weight factor is introduced to take into account the differences among studies
    in geographical area, time series length, and number of stations. The review is
    accompanied by the discussion of other rainfall related variables, that is, precipitation
    intensity, extreme rainfall events and meteorological droughts, which are useful
    to provide a broader picture of rainfall changes. Overall, there is an agreement
    about the tendency of a decrease in wet days on the entire Italy, with limited
    discrepancies in the various regions. A decrease in wet days is accompanied by
    a negative trend (although less evident) in total precipitation, especially in
    winter. Nevertheless, a univocal direction of trends (or lack of thereof) in annual
    total precipitation and mostly hydrological extreme events is difficult to achieve.@eng
