She joined the University of Oxford in the same year and was director of the Environmental Change Institute at the University of Oxford before joining Imperial in October 2021.

The tropics demonstrate this well, as it generally rains much more intensely there than at temperate latitudes. However, the Earth’s growing hotter does not mean that we will all experience nothing but tropical downpours no matter where we are. Quantifying and establishing this link has been the focus of the emerging science of extreme event attribution. Sandra Juto is also on my list, I admire how she seamlessly puts together the things she loves/creates so cohesively, her creative endeavors become an inspiring lifestyle. I try to make every one of my social media channels relevant, but I can’t put the same attention on all of them without neglecting the creative part of my business, so I focus on giving attention to the one I like the most or the one I’m better at it.

In scientific reports, political debates and the media, the measure of global climate change around the world is global mean (average) temperature rise.

Because while at a global level, the uncertainties as to the human causation for global climate change have now essentially decreased to the point where humanity’s fingerprints are all over man-made global warming, as one gets to smaller and smaller scales, the uncertainties mount up, for quite basic statistical reasons.

So, climate attribution science – the ability to pin man-made climate change on particular extreme weather events – is a complete game-changer. P EOPLE LIVING TODAY are among the first to clearly feel the consequences of a process that began 250 years ago in a Glasgow laboratory. Most of our PDFs are also available to download and we're working on making the final remaining ones downloadable now. It may have been particularly interesting because about a month ago, there was an extreme heat wave where I am in Alberta, as well as in British Columbia and the Pacific Northwest.So, far from being about some dry technicalities regarding climate attribution and statistical analysis, this book could become part of the tool-kit of everyone involved in action to limit the extent and severity of man-made global warming.

Some of the radiation is thrown back to Earth, like a game of table tennis between the Earth’s surface and greenhouse gases in which the energy decreases with every point of contact. It might sound trivial, but—as we know from every good thriller—it’s not that easy to reconstruct an event.

I’m always inspired and amazed by all the creative folk around so picking just three would be hard but let me try. Climate change is something that affects us all in one way or another and Friederike Otto has done a great job of explaining the science behind it without being boring. Fredi Otto is destined to be one of those rare scientists whose name becomes well known in the wider world.Fredi is co-investigator on the international project World Weather Attribution which aims to provide an assessment of the human-influence on extreme weather in the immediate aftermath of the event occurring.
