When moderate storms become Disasters: Operationalising the co-production of flood hazard in Iraq
Iraq’s most damaging floods do not always follow extraordinary rainfall. They emerge when hydroclimatic forcing interacts with rapidly changing socio-environmental conditions that shape how water is absorbed, routed, and controlled. Drawing on national-scale geospatial analysis of flood hazard and exposure, a 66-year precipitation dataset (1950–2016), a database of 22 major flood events (2006–2024), and over 30 semi-structured interviews, this pa…
Global hydrological models continue to overestimate river discharge
Global hydrological models (GHMs) are widely used to assess the impact of climate change on streamflow, floods, and hydrological droughts. For the ‘model evaluation and impact attribution’ part of the current round of the Inter-Sectoral Impact Model Intercomparison Project (ISIMIP3a), modelling teams generated historical simulations based on observed climate and direct human forcings with updated model versions. Here we provide a comprehensive ev…
Climate drivers of global wildfire burned area
Wildfire is an integral part of the Earth system, but at the same time it can pose serious threats to human society and to certain types of terrestrial ecosystems. Meteorological conditions are a key driver of wildfire activity and extent, which led to the emergence of the use of fire danger indices that depend solely on weather conditions. The Canadian Fire Weather Index (FWI) is a widely used fire danger index of this kind. Here, we evaluate ho…
Intergenerational inequities in exposure to climate extremes
Young generations are severely threatened by climate change
A quantitative evaluation of the issue of drought definition: A source of disagreement in future drought assessments
Droughts are anticipated to intensify in many parts of the world due to climate change. However, the issue of drought definition, namely the diversity of drought indices, makes it difficult to compare drought assessments. This issue is widely known, but its relative importance has never been quantitatively evaluated in comparison to other sources of uncertainty. Here, encompassing three drought categories (meteorological, agricultural, and hydrol…
