Elevated Risk of Compound Extreme Precipitation Preceded by Extreme Heat Events in the Upper Midwestern United States

Atmosphere, 2023
Compound extreme events can potentially cause deadlier socio-economic consequences. Although several studies focused on individual extreme climate events, the occurrence of compound extreme events is still not well studied in the upper Midwestern United ...

Nonlinear effect of compound extreme weather events on ozone formation over the United States

Weather and Climate Extremes, 2020
Compound events (e.g., co-occurrence of two extreme weather events simultaneously) have the potential to aggravate the impacts of heat wave and stagnation on ozone through nonlinear effects.

Causes of Increased Compound Temperature and Precipitation Extreme Events in the Arid Region of Northwest China from 1961 to 2100

Remote Sensing
Compound extreme events pose more grave threats to human health, the natural environment, and socioeconomic systems than do individual extreme events. However, the drivers and spatiotemporal change characteristics of compound extreme events under climate

Compound flood events: analysing the joint occurrence of extreme river discharge events and storm surges in northern and central Europe [PDF]

Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2023
The simultaneous occurrence of extreme events gained more and more attention from scientific research in the last couple of years. Compared to the occurrence of single extreme events, co-occurring or compound extremes may substantially increase risks. To
