Abstract Near‐surface wind regimes govern critical Earth system processes including dust mobilization, ocean mixing, and wildfire spread, yet their multi‐decadal evolution under anthropogenic forcing remains poorly constrained. Here we quantify extreme wind frequency changes (1981–2024) using ERA5‐Land reanalysis with a monthly aggregation approach ...
