Markus G. Donat,Lisa V. Alexander,H. Yang,Imke Durre,Russell S. Vose,Robert Dunn,Kate M. Willett,Enric Aguilar,Manola Brunet,John Caesar,Bruce Hewitson,Christopher Jack,A. M. G. Klein Tank,Andries Kruger,José A. Marengo,Thomas C. Peterson,Madeleine Renom,C. Oria Rojas,Matilde Rusticucci,J. Salinger,A. S. Elrayah,S. S. Sekele,Ashok K. Srivastava,Blair Trewin,C. Villarroel,Lucie A. Vincent,Panmao Zhai,Xuebin Zhang,S. Kitching,S. Kitching +29 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors presented the collation and analysis of the gridded land-based dataset of indices of temperature and precipitation extremes: HadEX2, which was calculated based on station data using a consistent approach recommended by the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) Expert Team on Climate Change Detection and Indices.
Journal ArticleDOI
More extreme precipitation in the world’s dry and wet regions
TL;DR: In this paper, extreme precipitation over land has increased over the wettest and driest regions and is likely to keep intensifying over the twenty-first century and this has key implications for dry regions, which may be unprepared for the potential related flooding.
Journal ArticleDOI
Longer and more frequent marine heatwaves over the past century
Eric C. J. Oliver,Eric C. J. Oliver,Markus G. Donat,Michael T. Burrows,Pippa J. Moore,Dan A. Smale,Dan A. Smale,Lisa V. Alexander,Jessica A. Benthuysen,Ming Feng,Alex Sen Gupta,Alistair J. Hobday,Neil J. Holbrook,Sarah E. Perkins-Kirkpatrick,Hillary A. Scannell,Hillary A. Scannell,Sandra C. Straub,Thomas Wernberg +17 more
TL;DR: Using a range of ocean temperature data including global records of daily satellite observations, daily in situ measurements and gridded monthly in situ-based data sets, this work identifies significant increases in marine heatwaves over the past century.
Journal ArticleDOI
A hierarchical approach to defining marine heatwaves
Alistair J. Hobday,Lisa V. Alexander,Sarah E. Perkins,Dan A. Smale,Dan A. Smale,Sandra C. Straub,Eric C. J. Oliver,Eric C. J. Oliver,Jessica A. Benthuysen,Michael T. Burrows,Markus G. Donat,Ming Feng,Neil J. Holbrook,Neil J. Holbrook,Pippa J. Moore,Hillary A. Scannell,Hillary A. Scannell,Alex Sen Gupta,Thomas Wernberg +18 more
TL;DR: In this article, a hierarchy of metrics that allow for different data sets to be used in identifying MHWs is proposed, which can be described by its duration, intensity, rate of evolution, and spatial extent.
Journal ArticleDOI
Marine heatwaves threaten global biodiversity and the provision of ecosystem services
Dan A. Smale,Dan A. Smale,Thomas Wernberg,Eric C. J. Oliver,Eric C. J. Oliver,Eric C. J. Oliver,Mads S. Thomsen,Ben P. Harvey,Ben P. Harvey,Sandra C. Straub,Michael T. Burrows,Lisa V.

Moore,Pippa J. Moore +23 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors quantify trends and attributes of extreme regional ocean warming (marine heatwaves, MHWs) across all ocean basins and examine their biological impacts from species to ecosystems.
