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

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 …

Caption: Table A. 11. 2. Synthesis table summarising assessments presented in Tables 11.4-
11.21 for hot extremes (HOT EXT.), heavy precipitation (HEAVY PRECIP.), agriculture and …

This chapter assesses simulations of future global climate change, spanning time horizons
from the near term (2021–2040), mid-term (2041–2060), and long term (2081–2100) out to …

Partitioning uncertainty in projections of future climate change into contributions from
internal variability, model response uncertainty and emissions scenarios has historically …

While climate change mitigation targets necessarily concern maximum mean state changes,
understanding impacts and develo** adaptation strategies will be largely contingent on …

Extreme events such as heat waves are among the most challenging aspects of climate
change for societies. We show that climate models consistently project increases in …

Summer temperature extremes can have large impacts on humans and the biosphere, and
an increase in heat extremes is one of the most visible symptoms of climate change. Multiple …

In the last two decades Europe experienced a series of high‐impact heat extremes. We here
assess observed trends in temperature extremes at ECA&D stations in Europe. We …

Europe has seen a rapid increase in the frequency and intensity of hot extremes in recent
decades. In this study it is shown, using ERA5 reanalysis data 1960–2021, that the hottest …
