recommendations! Published in 2021 at "International Journal of Climatology"

DOI: 10.1002/joc.7052

Abstract: To contribute a more ambitious target of Paris Agreement, that is, limiting global warming to 1.5°C instead of 2.0°C above preindustrial levels, it is essential to quantitatively reveal regional impacts of an additional 0.5°C warming… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/nclimate3320

Abstract: Discriminating the climate impacts of half-degree warming increments is high on the post-Paris science agenda. Here we argue that evidence from the observational record provides useful guidance for such assessments. read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s41467-018-08070-4

Abstract: While every society can be exposed to heatwaves, some people suffer far less harm and recover more quickly than others from their occurrence. Here we project indicators of global heatwave risk associated with global warming… read more here.

DOI: 10.1088/1748-9326/aab63b

Abstract: Following the adoption of the Paris Agreement, there has been an increasing interest in quantifying impacts at discrete levels of global mean temperature (GMT) increase such as 1.5°C and 2°C above pre-industrial levels. Consequences of… read more here.
