Stormy geomorphology: geomorphic contributions in an age of climate extremes
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2017 at "Earth Surface Processes and Landforms"
DOI: 10.1002/esp.4062
Abstract: The increasing frequency and/or severity of extreme climate events are becoming increasingly apparent over multi‐decadal timescales at the global scale, albeit with relatively low scientific confidence. At the regional scale, scientific confidence in the future… read more here.

Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2020 at "Theoretical and Applied Climatology"
DOI: 10.1007/s00704-020-03269-2
Abstract: Intense industrial activity has led to an increase in greenhouse gas concentration in the Earth’s atmosphere over the past few decades, whereby the climate change phenomenon has been recognized. Increasing greenhouse gases have been changing… read more here.

Climate extremes and agricultural commodity markets: A global economic analysis of regionally simulated events
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2020 at "Weather and climate extremes"
DOI: 10.1016/j.wace.2019.100193
Abstract: Abstract Agroclimatic extremes can be seen as typical supply shifters that, on a par with economic and structural drivers, distort supply, demand, trade, and induce price variability. Economic simulation models typically operate under the assumption… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41598-021-97762-x
Abstract: Compound climate extremes (CCEs) can have significant and persistent environmental impacts on ecosystems. However, knowledge of the occurrence of CCEs beyond the past ~ 50 years, and hence their ecological impacts, is limited. Here, we place the… read more here.
