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 …

Even though meteorologists have been aware of atmospheric blocking for more than 100
years, it is a phenomenon still not well forecast or completely understood. Also, while there …

We investigate the meteorological and dynamical conditions that led to the extreme heat in
the Pacific Northwest from late June to early July 2021. The extreme heat was preceded by …

Persistent dry and wet spells can arise from stationary weather situations or recurrent flow
patterns and result in significant socio‐economic impacts. Here, we study the effects of …

Spatially and temporally accurate event detection is a precondition for exploring the
mechanisms of climate extremes. To achieve this, a classical unsupervised machine …

Floods regularly cause substantial damage worldwide. Changing flood characteristics, eg,
due to climate change, pose challenges to flood risk management. The spatial extent of …

There are concerns that in the 21st century, global warming will lead to more frequent heat
wave days (HWDs), which could amplify ozone pollution (OP). However, a recent study …

Two 2021 winter warm spell events experienced near record extreme surface temperatures,
anomalies exceeding+ 5° +5^∘ C, during the winter season in 2021 across the Southern …

The sudden swings between drought/heat and pluvial could cause adverse impacts far
surpassing the sum of their individual effect. We propose a concept of intraseasonal …

Record-breaking heatwaves and wildfires immersed Siberia during the boreal spring of
2020 following an anomalously warm winter. Springtime heatwaves are becoming more …
