Description: A Research Network on Climate Change and Extreme Events
The overall objective of Module A is to significantly improve the understanding of scale interactions and links between atmospheric circulation, their natural variability and the resulting extreme events. This comprises identifying large-scale atmospheric patterns associated with the extreme weather events and understanding whether these large-scale attributes are consistent with changes in the planetary circulation and with the identified dynamics. This analysis is required for a robust estimate of future
Module C focuses on extreme events that have an impact on socio-economic systems. This means that it is not only a local extreme value of a meteorological parameter that is of interest, but the combination of specific environmental attributes that make it impact relevant. This may include the spatial extent of extremes, nonlinearities in dependencies, the combination of meteorological parameters, so-called compound events, the influence of non-climatic human factors or vulnerability and exposure.
