Tropical Extremes: Natural Variability and Trends
features the most up-to-date information on present and future trends
related to climate change and tropical extremes. Including contributions
from the foremost experts in the field, this important reference
addresses the science behind climate change and natural variability in
relation to tropical extremes. The book also includes practical insight
into modeling and observation approaches. In a warming world, the
increase of weather extremes presents a scientifically complex and
societally relevant challenge. The book confronts these challenges with
observational evidence, modeling studies and expected impacts. This is
an essential reference for researchers, modelers and students in the
fields of climate and atmospheric science looking to better understand
the causes and effects of tropical extremes and natural variability.
- Illuminates the role of natural variability and climate change in determining the fate and state of tropical extremes
- Offers
a robust guide for analysis relating to the impacts of extremes, thus
providing a potential roadmap for navigating the future of risk analysis
and the water-food-energy nexus
- Edited by a diverse team of global experts
- Includes contributions from leading researchers in the field, comprising the most up-to-date understanding of tropical extremes
