The session will use the 3P (Processes, Prediction and Projection) framework to showcase the latest and most compelling research on advancing understanding and prediction of climate and weather extremes. The session will be focusing on climate and weather extremes occurring in land areas manifesting as extreme precipitation, extreme snowfall, intense droughts, and intense and sustained heat waves/cold spells. Contributions are welcome from but are not limited to novel studies on (a) a fundamental probe of mechanisms of climate and weather extreme events, (b) their predictability and predictions using statistical and modelling frameworks, and (c) projections of change in them using both probabilistic and story-line approaches.
Studies addressing competing driving roles of local land surface, accelerated Arctic warming and oceanic forcing as well as isolating natural and human-driving influences are highly encouraged to contribute. We also encourage contributions from studies using large-ensemble climate modelling and comprehensive-data analyses, which provide better sampling of climate and weather extreme events. Studies undertaking innovative and emerging advanced techniques/concepts, for example artificial intelligence, to push understanding and prediction of climate and weather extremes are also highly encouraged to submit an abstract.
