TL;DR: The authors show that anthropogenic emissions of greenhouse gases have made compound hot extremes increasingly frequent and intense, and project that under future emissions four to eight times as many people will be affected by them by 2100.

TL;DR: In this article, the impact of urbanization on the regional climate over three vast city agglomerations in China is analyzed and quantified using the Weather Research and Forecasting Model coupled with the Urban Canopy Model.

TL;DR: In this article, an overview of Sun-Sky Radiometer Observation Network (SONET) measurements in China is presented based on observations at 16 distributed SONET sites in China, atmospheric aerosol parameters are acquired via standardization processes of operational measurement, maintenance, calibration, inversion, and quality control implemented since 2010.

TL;DR: In this article, the effects of urbanization on local climate trends have been re-estimated based on homogenized observations and using improved methods, and the effect of urbanisation on the observed warming trend of local surface air temperatures during the last few decades is determined as being about 20% at urban stations such as the Beijing Observatory.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated recent trends in summer heat waves (HW) over Central-Eastern China and their atmospheric drivers using the ERA Interim re-analysis and found that HW occurrence increases, especially during the last decade, and is largely due to an increase in the mean temperature rather than to a change in dynamics.
