Recent decades have seen a rise in the use of physics methods to study different societal
phenomena. This development has been due to physicists venturing outside of their …

Global warming, extreme climate events, earthquakes and their accompanying
socioeconomic disasters pose significant risks to humanity. Yet due to the nonlinear …

Network theory, as emerging from complex systems science, can provide critical predictive
power for mitigating the global warming crisis and other societal challenges. Here we …

Analyzing the complex behavior of extreme precipitation events (EPEs) is essential to better
understand the effect of climate change on surface and subsurface water resources and …

During the last 150 years, the tropical seagrass species Halophila stipulacea has
established itself in the southern and eastern parts of the Mediterranean Sea. More recently …

The El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO) is one of the most prominent interannual climate
phenomena. Early and reliable ENSO forecasting remains a crucial goal, due to its serious …

El Niño is an important quasi-cyclical climate phenomenon that can have a significant
impact on ecosystems and societies. Due to the chaotic nature of the atmosphere and ocean …

Global climate warming poses a significant challenge to humanity; it is associated with, eg,
rising sea level and declining Arctic sea ice. Increasing extreme events are also considered …

Abstract The El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) is a climate phenomenon that profoundly
impacts weather patterns and extreme events worldwide. Here we develop a method based …

This paper contributes to the climate-economy literature by analysing the role of weather
patterns in influencing the transmission of global climate cycles to economic growth. More …
