TL;DR: In this article, the authors present some indications from observations concerning how climatic extremes may have changed in the past and how they could change in the future either due to natural climate fluctuations or under conditions of greenhouse gas-induced warming.
Journal ArticleDOI
Human Factors Explain the Increased Losses from Weather and Climate Extremes
TL;DR: This paper found that most of the upward trends found in financial losses are due to societal shifts leading to ever growing vulnerability to weather and climate extremes, and geographic locations of the large loss trends establish that population growth and demographic shifts are the major factors behind the increasing losses from weather-climate extremes.
