Lakes are experiencing more severe heatwaves than the atmosphere

Communications Earth & Environment
The extent of the differences between atmospheric and lake heatwaves remains unclear. Here we analysed daily surface water and air temperature data from 265 lakes worldwide (2000–2022) to compare heatwave trends, spatial distributions, and key ...

Green swans and blue skies: Climate change and insolvency risk for financial institutions

International Insolvency Review, EarlyView.
Abstract This lecture in honour of the late Gabriel Moss QC and Ian Fletcher QC examines the challenge of climate‐related financial risk. Prudential regulators and central banks recognize that the systemic nature of climate‐related financial risk makes it an emerging vulnerability relevant to cross‐border insolvency resolution.

Characteristics and drivers of marine heatwaves in the western South Atlantic

Communications Earth & Environment
Marine heatwaves are events of extreme warming in the ocean and have devastating consequences for marine life. Here we used a K-mean clustering analysis to detect different types of marine heatwaves along the South American coast from 10°S to 45°S and ...

Incorporating Crowdsourced Data Into Operational Products: A Perspective From a National Meteorological Service

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
Future advances in the fields of meteorology and climate science will require scientists to increasingly strive towards the provision of new high‐resolution services. In this context, the development of new products and services along the weather chain may greatly benefit from the adoption of second‐and‐third‐party data (23PD) as a source of high ...

Assessing Taiwan's Future Climate: High Resolution Projections and Regional Impacts From Statistical Downscaling of CMIP6 Data

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
The Taiwan Empirical‐Statistical Downscaling (TaiESD) dataset utilises quantile mapping (QM) for temperature and quantile delta mapping (QDM) for precipitation bias correction. It was developed to provide high‐resolution climate change information for Taiwan.

Extreme Climate Events in Morocco: Historical Analysis and Future Projections Based on CMIP6 Simulations

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
Historical observations and bias‐corrected CMIP6 projections reveal intensifying warm extremes, declining cold events and increasingly irregular precipitation patterns across Morocco. Future warming, particularly under SSP5‐8.5, produces an almost linear amplification of heat, aridity and hydrological stress, leading to longer droughts and more intense

A study on the monitoring of heatwaves and bivariate frequency analysis based on mortality risk assessment in Wuhan, China

Frontiers in Public Health
The increasingly frequent occurrence of urban heatwaves has become a significant threat to human health. To quantitatively analyze changes in heatwave characteristics and to investigate the return periods of future heatwaves in Wuhan City, China, this ...
