In mid-June to July 2023, North China witnessed extreme heatwaves, marked by intense near-surface warming with an advanced seasonal cycle of local air temperature. An unconventional upper-tropospheric cold vorte
One of the direct and unavoidable consequences of global warming-induced rising temperatures is the more recurrent and severe heatwaves. In recent years, even countries like Malaysia seldom had some mild to severe heatwaves. As the Earth's average temperature continues to rise, heatwaves in Malays...
As the climate crisis has made heatwaves more likely and more intense, cities are taking measures to mitigate the adverse effects of extreme temperatures.

Scientists say extreme weather is rewriting climatic history in 2023, and heat waves, rise in sea levels, droughts, wildfires and hurricanes will continue to hit hard. Why does the power grid matters? The challenge of a heat wave is that a grid has to constantly balance its power supply and...
The influence of resonant waves on heat extremes in the Northern Hemisphere mid-latitude summer is increasing, especially in Eurasi The occurrence of resonant waves is closely related to double jets, accompanied by the enhancement of atmospheric blocking The occurrence of resonant waves is accompanied...
The world’s oceans are under threat from the prevalence of heatwaves caused by climate change. Despite this, there is a lack of understanding regarding their impact on seawater oxygen levels - a crucial element in sustaining biological survival. Here, we find that heatwaves can trigger low-oxy...
C. The increase of severe heat waves. D. The destructive effect of global warming.B(2023 · 浙江杭州模拟)In July 2022 , as an intense heat wave swept through China, residents sought relief in air raid shelters and swimming pools to stay cool, and dozens of cities, including Shanghai, ...
Marine heatwaves South China Sea El niño Northwestern pacific anticyclone 1. Introduction Marine heatwaves (MHWs), also known as extreme ocean warming events, are periods of anomalously high sea surface temperature (SST) that can extend up to thousands of kilometers and persist for days to mo...
