Heat waves (HWs) can cause large socioeconomic and environmental impacts. The
observed increases in their frequency, intensity and duration are projected to continue with …

Heatwaves constitute a major threat to human health and ecosystems. Projected increases
in heatwave frequency and severity thus lead to the need for prediction to enhance …

Persistent heat extremes can have severe impacts on ecosystems and societies, including
excess mortality, wildfires, and harvest failures. Here we identify Europe as a heatwave …

The physical understanding and timely prediction of extreme weather events are of
enormous importance to society due to their associated impacts. In this article, we highlight …

Abstract Purpose of Review Atmospheric blocking events represent some of the most high-
impact weather patterns in the mid-latitudes, yet they have often been a cause for concern in …

Accelerated warming in the Arctic, as compared to the rest of the globe, might have profound
impacts on mid-latitude weather. Most studies analyzing Arctic links to mid-latitude weather …

Drought and atmospheric aridity pose large risks to ecosystem services and agricultural
production. However, these factors are seldom assessed together as compound events …

Reviewing recent literature, we report that changes in extreme heat event characteristics
such as magnitude, frequency, and duration are highly sensitive to changes in mean global …

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 …
