HydroClimate Volatility on a Warming Earth

By Stu Winters A recently published  peer-reviewed scientific review article published in the journal “Nature Reviews: Earth and Environment” seeks to show that terrestrial climate change is resulting in unusually rapid and/or high magnitude swings between unusually wet and dry conditions (or vice versa) relative to what is typical for a given location and season.  And how such patterns are increasing on an increasingly warming … Continue reading HydroClimate Volatility on a Warming Earth

Unprecedented Heatwave is Smashing Records in the Coldest Location on the Planet
