💡 How does vegetation affect soil moisture far downwind? Using atmospheric transport + deep learning, a new study finds upwind information provides 67% of predictive power, with vegetation explaining 15%. Effects vary strongly across humid & semi-arid regions. 👉https://buff.ly/AKJHPRF

💡 New paper! Summer heat extremes are changing—not just becoming hotter, but lasting longer. By comparing 1-in-100-year summers in today's and preindustrial climates, we show that faster soil drying makes prolonged heatwaves more likely, especially in Western Europe. 👉 buff.ly/YnOWmc6

As #ClimateChange hits harder every year, droughts and water scarcity are becoming more severe. During #WorldWaterWeek, we’re reminded that water links atmosphere, land and ocean, and understanding these links is key to predict droughts and support sustainable water management.

💡 New Paper! How are European winter extremes linked to atmospheric circulation? Using the co-recurrence ratio (α), we find coupling depends strongly on the circulation domain and height, but little on the extreme threshold we define. 👉 Learn more: buff.ly/RcPoQej #ClimateExtremes #AI4PEX

💡 New Paper! 🌡️ How much of recent summer warming is circulation-driven? Our new study shows that atmospheric circulation trends explain up to 50% of Europe’s summer warming (1979–2023) — with strong but contrasting effects across the northern mid-latitudes.
