Heat and Extreme Weather
1 articleCoverage in Heat and Extreme Weather is built around extreme heat events, urban heat stress and severe rainfall, rather than the full range of issues contained in Climate and Water. The analytical frame places flash flooding, storm impacts and climate-related disasters against resource pressure, resilience, adaptation choices, infrastructure needs and effects on food or livelihoods, adding regional context only where it changes the interpretation. The scope remains heat and extreme weather, with Dams Water Transfers and Water Networks and Climate Adaptation Policy used only to explain direct overlap.
