Fig. 1: Composite time series of various variables during an extreme ET event in ERA5 Land.

The x-axis indicates days relative to the event, with 0 being the center of the 7-day event. The gray box indicates the 7-day duration based on which the events were selected. The variables shown are a evapotranspiration, b precipitation, c net short wave radiation, d surface air temperature, e relative humidity, f surface pressure, and g volumetric soil water. Two lines are colored and indicate the strongest (2019) and second strongest (2015) events in the study region (h). The other lines indicate the evolution of all other events between 1950 and 2023. A loess smoother was applied to improve visual clarity.
