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

In June 2021, western North America experienced a record-breaking heat wave outside the
distribution of previously observed temperatures. While it is clear that the event was extreme …

Abstract Purpose of Review: Review our current understanding of how precipitation is
related to its thermodynamic environment, ie, the water vapor and temperature in the …

Heatwaves are becoming more frequent under climate change and can lead to thousands of
excess deaths. Adaptation to extreme weather events often occurs in response to an event …

Current global climate models struggle to represent precipitation and related extreme
events, with serious implications for the physical evidence base to support climate actions. A …

Abstract The Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 6 (CMIP6) dataset is used to
examine projected changes in temperature and precipitation over the United States (US) …

This paper presents projected changes in extreme temperature and precipitation events by
using Coupled Model Intercomparison Project phase 6 (CMIP6) data for mid-century (2036 …

Two extreme heatwaves hit Western Europe in the summer of 2019, with historical records
broken by more than a degree in many locations, and significant societal impacts, including …

It sounds straightforward. As the Earth warms due to the increased concentration of
greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, global temperatures rise and so heatwaves become …

Global climate models (GCMs) are essential for investigating climate change, but their
coarse scale limits their efficacy for climate adaptation planning at the regional scales where …
