ERA5 Can Overstate Changes in the Frequency of Extreme Heat: A New Zealand Case Study
International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.ERA5 reproduces broad patterns of summer warming across New Zealand but underestimates temperature variability and warm‐tail extremes, biasing estimates of extreme heat risk. ABSTRACT Summertime temperature extremes exert profound impacts on human health, ecosystems, and infrastructure, yet their characteristics and drivers remain poorly quantified in ...
