Synopsis

Consequences of Weather, Climate and Ocean Extremes provides comprehensive coverage of the concepts, terminology, and methods used to assess the consequences of weather, climate and ocean extremes. It goes on to assess the direct and wider impacts and risks resulting from these extremes, for both the present day and the foreseeable future. The broader implications of these findings are also considered.

The book will help professionals gain an authoritative, evidence-based, and practice-relevant understanding of the way in which weather, climate and ocean extremes represent significant risks to both human and natural systems, now and in the future. It not only highlights recent advances in understanding and practice but also identifies the need and opportunities for further progress.
