Heat waves analysis over France in present and future climate: Application of a new method on the EURO-CORDEX ensemble

open access: yesClimate Services, 2016
Currently, the analysis of heat waves and the representation of such events in a comprehensible and accessible way is a crucial challenge for climate services, in particular for delivering scientific support to policy makers. In order to fulfil this need,

The effect of latent heat release on synoptic-to-planetary wave interactions and its implication for satellite observations: Theoretical modeling [PDF]

open access: yes
Simple models are being developed to simulate interaction of planetary and synoptic-scale waves incorporating the effects of large-scale topography; eddy heat and momentum fluxes (or nonlinear dynamics); radiative heating/cooling; and latent heat release

The 2003 heat wave

open access: yesEurosurveillance, 2007
The July-August 2005 issue of Eurosurveillance focused on the impact on mortality of the 2003 heat wave in Europe, with articles that were based on various methods and looked at different time periods. The subject of this letter is to assess, using a unique methodology, the excess mortality related to the 2003 heat wave across the continent.

Death in heat waves

open access: yesBMJ, 2003
Simple preventive measures may help reduce mortality Increasing evidence shows that atmospheric carbon dioxide levels are rising and are causing global warming.1 Record air temperatures were recorded in Britain during the last month. Accurate estimates of the consequences of these must wait until daily mortality data are available, but press reports ...

Association of heat and cold waves with cause-specific mortality in Iran: a systematic review and meta-analysis

open access: yesScientific Reports
Despite the frequent occurrence of heat waves in the Middle East, there is a lack of evidence regarding the overall estimates for the effect of heat waves on mortality in this region.

Climate Change in Layer Poultry Farming: Impact of Heat Waves in Region of Bastos, Brazil

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Poultry Science
The region around the municipality of Bastos, state of São Paulo, accounted for about 7% of Brazilian egg production in 2015. In 2012, it experienced a heat wave that resulted in the death of approximately 500,000 hens, according to information released ...
