Heatwaves constitute a major threat to human health and ecosystems. Projected increases
in heatwave frequency and severity thus lead to the need for prediction to enhance …

The physical understanding and timely prediction of extreme weather events are of
enormous importance to society due to their associated impacts. In this article, we highlight …

Forecasting and early warning systems are important investments to protect lives, properties,
and livelihood. While early warning systems are frequently used to predict the magnitude …

This study presents a comprehensive analysis of processes determining heat waves across
different climates in Europe for the period 1979–2016. Heat waves are defined using a …

This study investigated the drivers and extended-range prediction of the mid-July to early
August 2018 heatwaves over northwestern Europe, focusing on regional heatwave events …

We use a simple yet Earth-like hemispheric atmospheric model to propose a new framework
for the mathematical properties of blocking events. Using finite-time Lyapunov exponents …

This work investigates the statistical linkage between upper‐tropospheric transient Rossby
wave packets (RWPs) and lower‐tropospheric temperature extremes in the Northern …

Persistent dry and wet spells can arise from stationary weather situations or recurrent flow
patterns and result in significant socio‐economic impacts. Here, we study the effects of …

In meteorology, cluster analysis is frequently used to determine representative trends in
ensemble weather predictions in a selected spatio-temporal region, eg, to reduce a set of …

A statistically significant link is presented between atmospheric blocking located over the
eastern North Atlantic and northern Europe and warm‐season thunderstorm activity over …
