Over the last 20 years, several record-breaking events linked to high air temperatures have enhanced the attention over extreme heat phenomena, especially during summer. Both 2022 and 2023 have been exceptional years in this regard. Heat waves, in particular, are a major natural hazard for the ...
The objective of this study was to assess the spatial distribution and temporal trends of extreme precipitation and temperature events responses to global warming on the arid mountain regions of China. Results found that temperature extremes exhibited a significant warming trend, consistent with global ...
The SWOT mission launched in December 2022 with a goal to obtain the most comprehensive view and measurements of the world’s surface water. Conducted in partnership between NASA and the Canadian, UK, and French space agencies, its findings are critical in times of unprecedented weather events an...
Extreme temperature is an important indicator of climate change. Under the background of global warming, disaster events (warm winter, drought, and heat wave) caused by extreme temperature changes are also becoming increasingly frequent, w

augmented wind speeds, temperatures, and precipitation. Such changes in cyclone characteristics could exacerbate sea ice loss and Arctic warming through positive feedbacks. The increasing extreme nature of these weather events has implications for local ecosystems, communities, and socio-economic activities....
largely influenced by the more intense extreme events such as stagnation events and heat waves. Our analysis provides quantitative assessments and insights regarding the links between climate extremes, future air quality, and public health, suggesting that extreme weather events may be an important mecha...
Climate change is expected to increase the prevalence of extreme fire weather (Bowman et al. 2020; Coop et al. 2022), but substantial uncertainty exists around future trends in wildfires that are driven by interactions among climate, vegetation, and fuels (Kloster and Lasslop 2017; Wu et al....
Response of winter climate and extreme weather to projected Arctic sea-ice loss in very large-ensemble climate model simulations Introduction The Earth’s climate has changed considerably over time1,2, and more recently since the Industrial Revolution in the late eighteenth century due to increased ...
A recent increase in mid-latitude extreme weather events has been linked to Northern Hemisphere polar jet stream anomalies. To put recent trends in a historical perspective, long-term records of jet stream variability are needed. Here we combine two tree
