Climate extremes and the carbon cycle
Nature, 2013The terrestrial biosphere is a key component of the global carbon cycle and its carbon balance is strongly influenced by climate. Continuing environmental changes are thought to increase global terrestrial carbon uptake. But evidence is mounting that climate extremes such as droughts or storms can lead to a decrease in regional ecosystem carbon stocks ...

Climate extremes and climate change: The Russian heat wave and other climate extremes of 2010
Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, 2012A global perspective is developed on a number of high impact climate extremes in 2010 through diagnostic studies of the anomalies, diabatic heating, and global energy and water cycles that demonstrate relationships among variables and across events. Natural variability, especially ENSO, and global warming from human influences together resulted in very

Climate models and climate extremes
Building Services Engineering Research and Technology, 2002Climate change will alter expectations about the future to such an extent that past statistics about averages, variability and extremes will no longer be relevant. Scenarios of the future depend upon the rate of greenhouse gas increases (and changes in aerosol distributions) in the atmosphere, and are best produced by coupled ocean-atmosphere climate ...

Climate extremes stress ecosystems
Science, 2017Ecological Processes Climate shocks, such as warming bursts or rapid freeze-thaw cycles, stress ecological systems, often adversely affecting carbon and nutrient cycling. Mooshammer et al. exposed soil microbial communities to such shocks to uncover the mechanisms underpinning stress responses.

Extreme climatic events present society with significant challenges in a rapidly warming world. Ordinary citizens, the insurance industry and governments are concerned about the apparent increase in the frequency of weather and climate events causing extreme, and in some instances, catastrophic, impacts.

This chapter examines Floridaís extreme weather hazards: 1) why they happen, 2) their relation to interannual to multidecadal climate variability, and 3) the potential of each hazard and spatial variability across the state. The weather hazards indicated are under these broad categories: precipitation (rainfall, flooding, droughts), thunderstorms ...

The performance of FGOALS-g2 and FGOALS-s2 in simulating climate extremes over land, both globally and for China, is evaluated with respect to the observations by analyzing historical climate simulations conducted using two versions of the FGOALS model.
