Defining Single Extreme Weather Events in a Climate Perspective
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractWeather extremes are the showcase of climate variability. Given their societal and environmental impacts, they are of great public interest. The prevention of natural hazards, the monitoring of single events, and, ...
Searching for the Most Extreme Temperature Events in Recent History
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Designing Detection and Attribution Simulations for CMIP6 to Optimize the Estimation of Greenhouse Gas–Induced Warming
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: limate change detection and attribution studies rely on historical simulations using specified combinations of forcings to quantify the contributions from greenhouse gases and other forcings to observed climate change. In ...
Near-Surface Salinity as Nature’s Rain Gauge to Detect Human Influence on the Tropical Water Cycle
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: hanges in the global water cycle are expected as a result of anthropogenic climate change, but large uncertainties exist in how these changes will be manifest regionally. This is especially the case over the tropical oceans, ...
Revising Return Periods for Record Events in a Climate Event Attribution Context
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractBoth climate and statistical models play an essential role in the process of demonstrating that the distribution of some atmospheric variable has changed over time and in establishing the most likely causes for the ...
Estimating the Transient Climate Response from Observed Warming
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThe transient climate response (TCR) quantifies the warming expected during a transient doubling of greenhouse gas concentrations in the atmosphere. Many previous studies quantifying the observed historic response ...
Biogeophysical Effects of Land-Use and Land-Cover Change Not Detectable in Warmest Month

Biogeophysical Effects of Land-Use and Land-Cover Change Not Detectable in Warmest Month
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Comparing Methods to Constrain Future European Climate Projections Using a Consistent Framework
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Political decisions, adaptation planning, and impact assessments need reliable estimates of future climate change and related uncertainties. To provide these estimates, different approaches to constrain, filter, or weight ...
