Extreme heat, drought and moisture excess are increasingly co-occurring within a single
growing season, impacting crop yields in global breadbasket regions. In this Review, we …

Compound droughts and hot events or extremes (CDHEs) may lead to larger repercussions
than do individual extremes. Due to the disastrous impacts and increased risk of these …

Extreme weather increases the risk of large-scale crop failure. The mechanisms involved are
complex and intertwined, hence undermining the identification of simple adaptation levers to …

With climate change, heat waves are becoming increasingly frequent, intense and broader
in spatial extent. However, while the lethal effects of heat waves on humans are well …

Compound climate extremes such as drought and high temperature have a greater impact
on agricultural production than the individual extremes. An increasing frequency and …

Agricultural drought is generally defined as a deficit in soil moisture, and can affect plant
growth and crop yields. Accurate prediction of agricultural drought with sufficient lead time …

Compound drought and heat event (CDHE) causes severe impacts on agriculture,
ecosystem, and human health. Based on daily maximum surface air temperature and …

Climate extremes cause significant winter wheat yield loss and can cause much greater
impacts than single extremes in isolation when multiple extremes occur simultaneously …

It is well understood that India is largely exposed to different climate extremes including
floods, droughts, heat waves, among others. However, the exposure of co-occurrence of …

Droughts are characterized by limited water resources and extreme arid climates and have a
notable influence on crop yield and food security. Therefore, evaluating the crop drought …
