Drivers of exceptionally cold North Atlantic Ocean temperatures and their link to the 2015 European heat wave [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The North Atlantic and Europe experienced two extreme climate events in 2015: exceptionally cold ocean surface temperatures and a summer heat wave ranked in the top ten over the past 65 years.

Quantification of heat vulnerability using system dynamics

open access: yesFrontiers in Built Environment, 2023
One of the major climate threats is extreme heat events, as they pose significant risks to public health that are well documented in the epidemiologic literature. The effects of extreme heat events have been evident over the past years by several extreme

Earth observations of extreme heat events: leveraging current capabilities to enhance heat research and action

open access: yesEnvironmental Research Letters, 2021
In the boreal summer of 2021, as heat extremes triggered mass death in ecological systems, pushed engineered systems to the breaking point, and threatened health and well-being of people across the northern hemisphere, it was impossible to ignore the ...

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

open access: yesWeather 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.
