TL;DR: In this paper, the authors calculated the changes in extreme low temperature over Northern China under 1.5 °C and 2.0 °C global warming scenarios, respectively, and showed that extreme low temperatures in China will experience 0.32-0.46 °C higher minimum surface air temperature (SAT) than the global average.

TL;DR: Based on the 1979-2018 datasets of Climate Prediction Center (CPC) daily maximum air temperature, HadISST, and NCEP-DOE II reanalysis, the impact of Pacific decadal oscillation (PDO) and Atlantic multidecadal oscillations (AMO) on the interdecadal variability in extreme high temperature (EHT) in North China (NC) is investigated through observational analysis and National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) Community Atmosphere Model version 5.3 (CAM5.3) numerical simulations.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used the ensemble mean of global climate models from the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase six (CMIP6) and population projection to assess the future changes in high-temperature extremes and exposure to the population by the middle of this century (2041-2060) in Africa compared to the recent climate taken from 1991 to 2010.

TL;DR: In this paper, the spatial and temporal variation of TCZ across both the retrospective and the prospective periods was investigated. And the authors found that uncertainty arising from climate models dominates in the TCZ than dispersed emission scenarios, in contrast to the situation in humid and arid zones.

TL;DR: Based on the latest Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 6 (CMIP6), the authors assesses future extreme high temperature (EHT) changes across China at five specific global warming thresholds (1.5°C, 2°C), and warming will occur faster under SSP5-8.5 compared to SSP1-2.6 and SSP2-4.5.
