Relationships of surface air temperature anomalies over Europe to persistence of atmospheric circulation patterns conducive to heat waves
Heat waves are among natural hazards with the most severe consequences for human society, including pronounced mortality impacts in mid-latitudes. Recent studies have hypothesized that the enhanced persistence of atmospheric circulation may affect surface climatic extremes, mainly the frequency and...
