Extreme weather events [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 1992
Models that try to forecast the detailed geographical distribution of oceanic and atmospheric variables affected by the ENSO cycle are briefly discussed. Combinations of singular-spectrum analysis and the maximum entropy method that hold promise for predicting the ENSO cycle 2-3 yrs in advance are addressed.

CZEXWED: The unified Czech extreme weather database

open access: yesWeather and Climate Extremes, 2023
A crucial step in developing a strategy against natural hazards is the analysis of weather extremes in the past. Due to the multiplication of their impacts when occurring in a larger area, we strongly recommend not evaluating the extremes only at ...

Ensemble climate-impact modelling: extreme impacts from moderate meteorological conditions

open access: yesEnvironmental Research Letters, 2020
The investigation of risk due to weather and climate events is an example of policy relevant science. Risk is the result of complex interactions between the physical environment (geophysical events or conditions, including but not limited to weather and ...
