In a study published in Weather, researchers estimated the current chances and characteristics of extreme hot episodes in the UK, and how they have changed over the last 6 decades.

Early online research in journals of the American Meteorological Society features topics including the relationship between hot, dry air and gun violence in New York City; the importance of NOAA research flights to improve hurricane track forecatss; lightning-initiated wildfires; and studies on how personal experience of extreme weather interacts with political preferences to shape views on climate change.

According to an article published in the prestigious journal Nature Climate Change, atmospheric particle emissions generated by forest fires could double current projections by the end of the 21st century due to climate change, as these projections only consider the direct effect of human activity on their evolution.
