In the context of global warming, general increase in temperature has led to an heatwave events, as well a dramatic intensification economic losses and social risks. This study employs latest intensity–area–duration (IAD) framework that takes into account temporal continuity spatial dynamics extreme events identify regional extracts key parameters associated changes frequency, intensity, influe...

Marine heatwaves around Australia, and globally, have been increasing in their frequency, intensity, duration. This study reviews catalogues marine heatwave metrics trends Australia since 1982, from near the beginning of satellite sea-surface temperature observing period. The years which longest strongest occurred are also recorded. In addition, we analyse selected case regions, provide a short...

Abstract February 2020 was anomalously warm in the Antarctic Peninsula region and registered one of most intense heatwaves ever recorded Western Antarctica. The event featured unprecedented regional mean temperature anomalies (+4.5 °C) over between 6 11 highest local continental region. Taking flow analogs from past (1950–1984) recent (1985–2019) periods ERA5 reanalysis, here we quantify role c...

Climate change will exacerbate environmental threats, which will, in turn, affect agricultural production patterns. This study addresses the feasibility of using Sentinel-2 (S2) optical remote sensing data to map consequences heatwaves on vineyard plots. The proposed method damaged and undamaged vineyards is based use an inter-annual (C1) intra-annual (C2) criterion derived from Normalized Diff...

Abstract Successful weather forecasts on subseasonal time‐scales can support societal preparedness and mitigate the impacts of extreme events. Heatwaves in particular can, certain cases, be predicted several weeks advance. Heatwave predictability is commonly assessed terms heatwave intensity. In addition to intensity, we assess onset duration, which are crucial components early‐warning systems ...

Abstract As summer heatwaves have severe adverse impacts on human society and ecosystems, there is need to better understand their meteorological drivers future projections under climate change. This study investigates the linkage between atmospheric blocking (June–August) over North America using two reanalysis datasets (ERA-Interim NCEP-DOE-R2) large-ensembles of Canadian Earth System Models ...
