Special Issue Information<\/span><\/p>\n

\nIt is well recognised that climate changes are altering the frequency and intensity of extreme weather <\/span>events worldwide. These events play an important role in Earth systems having a devastating impact on <\/span>society and the environment. Overall, understanding the dynamics behind these episodes is crucial for <\/span>developing strategies to improve disaster preparedness and response, as well as mitigating their impacts <\/span>on communities and ecosystems. Atmosphere is dedicating this Special Issue to publishing the latest <\/span>studies in the context of extreme weather events as they relate to climate and weather variability.<\/span><\/p>\n

The main topics to be presented in this Special Issue include, but are not limited to:<\/span>
\n\uf0b7 Flood, droughts, cold spells, heatwaves and climate studies;<\/span>
\n\uf0b7 Severe weather: hailstorms, tornadoes, heavy rainfall and lightning;<\/span>
\n\uf0b7 Polar lows, medicanes, tropical cyclones and torrential rains;<\/span>
\n\uf0b7 Extreme wildfires, smoke aerosol emission, transport and impacts on atmosphere and air <\/span>quality.<\/span>
\n\uf0b7 Use of remote sensing and Earth observations (EOs) for studying extreme events;<\/span>
\n\uf0b7 Modelling and forecasting extreme events;<\/span>
\n\uf0b7 Impact of extreme weather on society and early warning systems.<\/span><\/p>\n

We encourage contributions which present innovative research, reviews and case studies examining all <\/span>aspects of extreme weather events, from observation to numerical modelling results that are useful for <\/span>understanding these events.<\/span><\/p>\n

Keywords: extreme weather; wildfires; storms; floods; droughts; hurricanes<\/span><\/p>\n
