Our @XaidaProject paper led by @RobertVautard is out in @NatureComms: European heat extremes are increasing very fast due to more frequent southerly flows. Worryingly, climate models fail to capture these circulation changes

Het was een extreme zomer op het noordelijk halfrond. Maar veruit de grootste klimaatramp viel in september: >1m regen in Griekenland, duizenden doden in Libië. Hoe kon dit gebeuren?? En is dit ook mogelijk in Nederland? Met @Bloemendaal_N & @DimCoumou: nu.nl/klimaat/6280657/klimaa…

Impressive double jet pattern over Eurasia over the past weeks. In our recent @NatureComms paper we show how positive trends in this pattern made Western Europe a #heatwave hotspot. @syn_efou @DimCoumou @PIK_Climate @columbiaclimate @CA_Latest nature.com/articles/s41467-0…

Dangerous #heatwave in southern Europe this week. #ClimateChange is a strong amplifier! Here my interview on Dutch television yesterday
Hoogleraar klimaatextremen @DimCoumou over de hitte in Zuid-Europa: “Hittegolven vonden ook 100 jaar geleden plaats, maar de kans op extreme temperaturen neemt heel sterk toe. Wereldwijd komen hittegolven nu ongeveer 10 keer vaker voor.” #Nieuwsuur

Great paper by @raedhamed1 showing how causal analyses of large #climate and #harvest data can be used to understand teleconnections and joint #breadbasket failures

'De veranderingen in de straalstroom verklaren de stijgende trend in hittegolven in West-Europa en waarschijnlijk ook de recente grote bosbranden in Siberië, ontdekte @DimCoumou (@Vuamsterdam). Hij vertelt over zijn doorbraak in onderzoek in NWO's magazine nwo.nl/cases/snikhete-zomers…

#COP27 starts today. In the run-up, @VN_benelux_nl selected our #DataScience long-lead forecasts of #climate #extremes as a key innovation to combat climate change. Exciting to work on our spin-off company! @SemVijverberg

Recently, @syn_efou et al showed how changes in the #jetstream are linked to very rapid increases in #heatwaves in w-EU. In our new Science study by @RCScholten et al shows that the same jetstream changes cause massive #wildfires in Siberia. #snowmelt is important too. See 👇👇
