Changes in event soil moisture-temperature coupling can intensify very extreme heat beyond expectations by Douglas Maraun, Reinhard Schiemann, Albert Ossó, Martin Jury

“…Abstract The most disastrous heatwaves are very extreme events with return periods of hundreds of years, but traditionally, climate research has focussed on moderate extreme events occurring every couple of years or even several times within a year. Here, we use three Earth System Model large ensembles to assess whether very extreme heat events respond differently to global warming than moderate extreme events. …”
