Recent extreme heatwaves are no match for future events
In recent years, record-breaking heatwaves have occurred over many regions of the Earth causing serious impacts to human and natural systems. Here we show that recently observed exceptional heatwaves are no match to potential future 21st century events based on multiple metrics. For several observed heatwaves, this holds even under low- and medium-emissions scenarios. In a high- to very high-emissions future, many regions are projected to experi…
Future warming events will outdo the extreme heat waves of the recent past, new study finds
The extreme heat waves we have seen over the last few years may only serve as a preview of what is to come as a result of climate change. A new study led by researcher Philipp Aglas-Leitner from Freie Universität Berlin, published in Nature Communications, finds that future heat waves could last longer, impact larger areas, and be much more severe.
A study by the FU Berlin shows how far future heat waves could hit past events. A drastic picture is especially evident for Europe.
On a map designed for the end of this century, the summer of Europe, North Africa, the Middle East and Asia appears painted in increasingly warm tones.
The extreme heat waves could turn into even more intense and persistent phenomena in the future, capable of The article In Europe the heat waves will become increasingly extreme comes from daily Blitz.
The heat waves of the past years have broken records in many places and had serious consequences. A new climate analysis now shows that future heat periods could be longer, larger and more severe than the extreme events experienced so far. Even with strongly reduced greenhouse gas emissions, such developments remain possible in several examined regions. Berlin (Germany). The European heat wave of 2018, the Australian [...] Der Beitrag The most e…
