Compound weather and climate events describe combinations of multiple climate drivers
and/or hazards that contribute to societal or environmental risk. Although many climate …

Predictions of floods, droughts, and fast drought‐flood transitions are required at different
time scales to develop management strategies targeted at minimizing negative societal and …

Hydroclimatic extremes such as intense rainfall, floods, droughts, heatwaves, and wind or
storms have devastating effects each year. One of the key challenges for society is …

Compound weather and climate events are combinations of climate drivers and/or hazards
that contribute to societal or environmental risk. Studying compound events often requires a …

Inferring the mechanisms causing river flooding is key to understanding past, present, and
future flood risk. However, a quantitative spatially distributed overview of the mechanisms …

Extremely high temperatures pose an immediate threat to humans and ecosystems. In
recent years, many regions on land and in the ocean experienced heat waves with …

The magnitudes of river floods in Europe have been observed to change, but their alignment
with changes in the spatial coverage or extent of individual floods has not been clear. We …

Extreme event attribution answers the question of whether and by how much anthropogenic
climate change has contributed to the occurrence or magnitude of an extreme weather …

Floods often affect large regions and cause adverse societal impacts. Regional flood hazard
and risk assessments therefore require a realistic representation of spatial flood …

Multivariate or compound hydrological-extreme events such as successive floods, large-
scale droughts, or consecutive drought-to-flood events challenge water management and …
