Abstract: Drought in spring and early summer has been shown to precede anomalous hot summer temperature. In particular, drought in the Mediterranean region has been recently shown to precede and to contribute to the development of ...

Abstract: AbstractIt is of fundamental importance to evaluate the ability of climate models to capture the large-scale atmospheric circulation patterns and, in the context of a rapidly increasing greenhouse forcing, the robustness ...

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 ...

Abstract: he relative contribution of the synoptic-scale circulations to local and mesoscale processes was quantified in terms of the variability of midlatitude temperature anomalies from 2003 to 2013 using meteorological variables ...

Abstract: AbstractWe have analyzed the record-breaking drought that affected western and central Europe from July 2016 to June 2017. It caused widespread impacts on water supplies, agriculture, and hydroelectric power production, ...

Abstract: AbstractAn attribution study has been performed to investigate the degree to which the unusually cold European winter of 2009/10 was modified by anthropogenic climate change. Two different methods have been included for ...
