图书简介
Climate Extremes: Patterns and Mechanisms is a compilation of recent advancements in the identification of the extreme event patterns and mechanisms. This volume covers a comprehensive documentation of the processes and mechanisms unique to individual weather and climate extremes events, which will advance the understanding and prediction of future extreme events. Currently, most of the developing theories about the changing patterns of weather and climate extremes are scattered in the literature and, therefore, this is a dedicated volume that summarizes everything in one place for the larger research community and graduate students. Mid-latitude and subtropical climate extremes (heat waves, hurricanes, droughts, etc.) have increased and the dynamical processes leading to the increase have been linked to common theories such as arctic amplification, jet stream meandering, tropical expansion, etc. However, the dynamical processes of individual extreme events are manifold and cannot be generalized. The goal of this volume is to document the various climate extreme events and associated changes that have been analyzed through diagnostics, modeling, and statistical approaches. Volume highlights include: Breaking the mold of over-generalized mechanisms of extreme events and their increases and intensification Physical underpinning of climate extremes, which is one of the frontier sciences today State of the art of climate model performance in terms of simulating high-impact weather/climate extremes, and how much of a "lead time" current predictions can get Summary of the various existing theories, including controversial ones, on how climate extremes will continue to become stronger and more frequent Climate Extremes: Patterns and Mechanisms is a valuable resource for scientists and students in the fields of geophysics, climate physics, natural hazards, and environmental science.
