AttributioN of DynAmic and thermodyNamic components in exTreme weather and climate Events

Project description

Towards reliable extreme weather attribution

Extreme weather events are unusual, unpredictable, severe or unseasonal, and can be attributed either to human influence on climate or quantifying specific thermodynamic meteorological processes. The EU-funded ANDANTE project aims to distinguish between the two and to identify their contributions to the risk of extreme weather events in Africa and Europe. The project will be a big boost for the development of new prediction systems in this relatively new scientific area of event attribution.
