Climate Extremes and the Length of Gestation
Environmental Health Perspectives, 2011 Although future climate is predicted to have more extreme heat conditions, the available evidence on the impact of these conditions on pregnancy length is very scarce and inconclusive.We investigated the impact of maternal short-term exposure to extreme ambient heat on the length of pregnancy.This study was based on a cohort of births that occurred in ...

The future of extreme climate in Iran [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2019 AbstractIran is experiencing unprecedented climate-related problems such as drying of lakes and rivers, dust storms, record-breaking temperatures, droughts, and floods. Here, we use the ensemble of five high-resolution climate models to project maximum and minimum temperatures and rainfall distribution, calculate occurrences of extreme temperatures ...

Climate extremes and the role of dynamics [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2013 One of the most societally important manifestations of climate change is the changing frequency and amplitude of extreme weather and climate events. A simple conceptual picture of why climate change may lead to an increase in weather extremes is that as the atmosphere warms, the specific humidity of the air increases, and in regions of enhanced latent ...
