The responses of ecological indicators to compound extreme climate indices in Southwestern China
Global warming has been leading to frequent climate extremes, and a single variable of climate extremes is no longer sufficient to fully assess the impact of climate extremes on ecosystems, requiring a synergistic multivariate inquiry.

A methodology for the spatiotemporal identification of compound hazards: wind and precipitation extremes in Great Britain (1979–2019) [PDF]
Compound hazards refer to two or more different natural hazards occurring over the same time period and spatial area. Compound hazards can operate on different spatial and temporal scales than their component single hazards.

Biogeochemical extremes and compound events in the ocean [PDF]
The ocean is warming, losing oxygen and being acidified, primarily as a result of anthropogenic carbon emissions. With ocean warming, acidification and deoxygenation projected to increase for decades, extreme events, such as marine heatwaves, will ...
