This work resulted from an amazing interdisciplinary collaboration of our #TISP survey project and @ETH climate researchers @SimonaMeiler @KropfChahan @sam_luethi @DavidBresch – thank you so much!🤝
Here’s the #preprint: osf.io/preprints/osf/mq9x6

Do people attribute extreme weather events to #climate change? Is attribution linked to the severity of events? Is it related to #policy support? Does it differ between countries and types of extreme weather? 🌏
We tested this with the #CLIMADA risk model and a global #survey 🔍

How many people could die due to heat during an extreme summer?🥵🥵
Our study on rapidly increasing risk of summers with very high heat-related mortality levels in 748 locations across the globe was published today in Nature communications @NatureComms nature.com/articles/s41467-0…

Excited to share our new paper published in @NatureClimate on US coastal flood hazard. We show that future changes in tropical cyclone climatology may cause drastic increases in the frequency of extreme rainfall-surge compound events.

NOLA Hurricane Ida deaths show growing risk of compound events - heat deaths from power failure exceed those from hurricane itself @radleyhorton @AllanMargolin @ClimateOfGavin nytimes.com/2021/09/15/us/ne…

Here's a loop of all NHC forecasts issued for Hurricane #Ida, with its observed track & intensity highlighted for comparison.
NHC forecasts were exceptionally consistent *and* accurate.
