Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The increase in intensity and frequency of extreme weather events (EWE) is the most dramatic consequence of global climate change. EWE include such weather phenomena as periods of prolonged heat and cold (heat and cold spell), squalls and tornadoes, and hurricanes, extremely high precipitation, lightning, hail storms, and others. Siberia is uniquely vulnerable to climate change; however, despite great efforts, at the moment, there is still insufficient information regarding weather extremes both in the past and during the period of observed warming of the climate. This Special Issue aims to collect as much information about extreme weather events in Siberia as possible. We invite research on all seasons, scales, and types of extremes.
