Implication

This analysis reveals significant increases in extreme precipitation risks for populations and croplands in South Asia, suggesting urgent adaptation strategies are necessary.

Key Points

Extreme precipitation events are projected to increase significantly in South Asia, affecting both population and food security.
Under the SSP5‐8.5 scenario, population exposure to extreme rainfall (≥20mm) is expected to rise by 91.7% by 2100.
Key precipitation indices show considerable changes, with maximum five-day precipitation projected to rise by 44.06%.
Targeted adaptation strategies, including enhanced flood protection and climate-resilient agriculture, are crucial to mitigate risks.
