DOI: 10.1016/j.wace.2019.100236
Abstract: Abstract Extreme cold events can cause crop damage as well as an increase in energy demand and even in the mortality rate. Identifying the atmospheric processes associated with the occurrence of these extremes would allow… read more here.

DOI: 10.1088/1748-9326/accc49
Abstract: Winter cold extreme events have been observed to frequently take place over North America mainly over its east side, which show significant interannual and decadal variability and cause huge economic losses in the United States.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1088/1748-9326/ad2caf
Abstract: Utilizing ERA5 data, this study provides evidence that both the winter-mean state and subseasonal variability (SSV) of the warm Arctic-cold Eurasia (WACE) pattern significantly influence the frequency of cold extremes in Eurasia. The positive phase… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/icb/icab087
Abstract: Highly dynamic environments like estuaries will undergo unpredictable shifts in thermal and salinity regimes with ongoing climate change. These interactive stressors fluctuate predictably and seasonally over historical periods, which has facilitated the evolution of wide… read more here.

Models and observations agree on fewer and milder midlatitude cold extremes even over recent decades of rapid Arctic warming
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2024 at "Science Advances"
DOI: 10.1126/sciadv.adp1346
Abstract: An apparent increase in observed cold extremes over recent decades in the northern midlatitudes has been reported, in contrast to robust decreases predicted by climate models. This discrepancy has led to suggestions that models fail… read more here.

DOI: 10.1175/bams-d-16-0259.1
Abstract: AbstractThe extratropical stratosphere in boreal winter is characterized by a strong circumpolar westerly jet, confining the coldest temperatures at high latitudes. The jet, referred to as the stratospheric polar vortex, is predominantly zonal and centered… read more here.

DOI: 10.1175/jcli-d-17-0463.1
Abstract: AbstractIt has been argued that fewer cold extremes will be expected to occur over most mid–latitude areas, due to anthropogenic-induced global warming. However, East Asia repeatedly suffered from unexpected cold spells during the winter of… read more here.
