Archetypal Analysis: Mining Weather and Climate Extremes [PDF]
, 2017 Conventional analysis methods in weather and climate science (e.g., EOF analysis) exhibit a number of drawbacks including scaling and mixing. These methods focus mostly on the bulk of the probability distribution of the system in state space and overlook

Climate Change and Weather Extremes in the Eastern Mediterranean and Middle East
Reviews of Geophysics, 2022 Observation‐based and modeling studies have identified the Eastern Mediterranean and Middle East (EMME) region as a prominent climate change hotspot. While several initiatives have addressed the impacts of climate change in parts of the EMME, here we ...

Unprecedented climate extremes in South Africa and implications for maize production
Environmental Research Letters, 2022 Maize is the most important crop grown in South Africa, but yields can be severely reduced by extreme high summer average temperatures and low precipitation, potentially adversely affecting both domestic consumption and regional food security exports. To

Climate Extremes are Becoming More Frequent, Co-occurring, and Persistent in Europe
Anthropocene Science, 2022 With global warming, many climate extremes are becoming more frequent, often co-occurring, or repeatedly occurring in consecutive years. However, only limited studies have investigated these changes of climate extremes together. We study these changes in

Increasing occurrence of cold and warm extremes during the recent global warming slowdown. [PDF]
, 2018 The recent levelling of global mean temperatures after the late 1990s, the so-called global warming hiatus or slowdown, ignited a surge of scientific interest into natural global mean surface temperature variability, observed temperature biases, and ...

Vegetation Change and Its Response to Climate Extremes in the Arid Region of Northwest China
Remote Sensing, 2021 Changes in climate extremes have a profound impact on vegetation growth. In this study, we employed the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) and a recently published climate extremes dataset (HadEX3) to study the temporal and spatial ...
