High impact weather and climate

The high-impact weather and climate group performs research on extreme weather and climate events including heatwaves, tropical cyclones, severe storms, extreme rainfall and drought. The group examines all aspects of these events including their underlying physical processes, their variability and change over time and the ability of weather and climate models to simulate these extrema.
