Session 8A Explaining Extreme Events from a Climate Perspective II

Tuesday, 14 January 2025: 4:30 PM-6:00 PM
243 (New Orleans Ernest N. Morial Convention Center)
Host: 38th Conference on Climate Variability and Change
Cochairs:
Andrew J. Hoell, NOAA Physical Sciences Laboratory, Boulder, CO and Stephanie C. Herring, NOAA's National Centers for Environmental Information (NCEI)

Understanding anthropogenic effects on extreme weather and climate events is key to informing future infrastructure development, economic growth, ecosystem management, and healthcare needs. We encourage submissions on how human-caused climate change may have affected the predictability, intensity, duration, magnitude, and likelihood of recent extreme events, including, but not limited to heat, drought, extreme rainfall, and flooding. We also encourage abstracts that establish links between extreme events in the context of climate change and resilience efforts for at-risk populations.
