Mountain regions are highly vulnerable to climate change. While Elevation-Dependent Warming has been extensively documented in various mountainous areas worldwide, fewer studies have explored how other climate variables, especially precipitation and its extremes, vary with elevation over time. In this study, we investigate changes in summer mean and intense precipitation over the Greater Alpine Region using different gridded datasets from reanalysis, rain gauges and satellite products. By applying various indices and metrics to identify mean, extreme precipitation and its frequency, we analyse how these quantities have changed in the last decades and their elevation-dependent variations. In particular, our findings indicate that intense summer precipitation has increased over recent decades, with a more pronounced enhancement over the Alpine slopes compared to the Po Valley. Moreover, when sub-daily data are available, our analysis suggests that sub-daily duration precipitation extremes may exhibit even stronger signals.
