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

BACKGROUND The United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC)
was established in 1992 to pursue the “stabilization of greenhouse gas concentrations at a …

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 …

Leveraging artificial neural networks (ANNs) trained on climate model output, we use the
spatial pattern of historical temperature observations to predict the time until critical global …

Executive summary Land and climate interact in complex ways through changes in forcing
and multiple biophysical and biogeochemical feedbacks across different spatial and …

Previous studies have identified a recent increase in wildfire activity in the western United
States (WUS). However, the extent to which this trend is due to weather pattern changes …

Extreme heat undermines the working capacity of individuals, resulting in lower productivity,
and thus economic output. Here we analyse the present and future economic damages due …

Abstract An IPCC Special Report on the impacts of global warming of 1.5 C above pre-
industrial levels and related global greenhouse gas emission pathways, in the context of …

Global warming is one of the major consequences of the human activities where the overuse
of fossil fuels as energy resources caused the increase in the concentration of the …

Two questions motivated this study: 1) Will meteorological droughts become more frequent
and severe during the twenty-first century? 2) Given the projected global temperature rise, to …
