Events under Global Warming.»
The authors commented, «These findings are in tune with model projections and some observations that indicate an increase in heavy rain events and a decrease in weak
events under global warming scenarios.»

Dr Li said the latest research findings give a better understanding of changes in human - perceived equivalent temperature, and indicate
global warming has stronger long - term impacts on human beings
under both extreme and non-extreme weather conditions, suggesting that climate change adaptation can not just focus on heat wave
events, but should be extended to the whole range of effects of temperature increases.
The dramatic decline in Arctic sea ice and snow is one of the most profound signs of
global warming and has coincided with «a period of ostensibly more frequent
events of extreme weather across the mid-latitudes, including extreme heat and rainfall
events and recent severe winters,» according to the conference organizers, who are posting updates
under the #arctic17 hashtag on Twitter.
