Maps

According to the study, more and more regions will be affected by multiple climate-related extreme events simultaneously. The blue colours show regions where isolated events are most common, the red ones show where co-occurring events are most common. The left map shows present day, and the right map shows the future with medium-high emissions.

    Multiple extreme climate events at the same time may be the new normal

    Heatwaves, droughts and forest fires are some of the extreme climate-related events that are expected not only to become more frequent but also to increasingly strike at the same time. This finding emerges from a new study led by Uppsala University, in which researchers have mapped the impact of climate change in different regions of the world.
