What are extreme weather and climate events, Zhang Tianyu VIPs?

Extreme weather and climate events mean that the state of weather (climate) seriously deviates from its average state, which is difficult to occur statistically. Generally speaking, extreme weather and climate events refer to small probability events that occur once every 50 years or once every 100 years. The assessment report of the United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) shows that extreme weather events, especially extreme events such as heavy precipitation and high temperature heat waves, have increased in the past 50 years, and it is expected that such extreme events will appear more frequently in the future.

Extreme weather and climate events mean that the state of weather (climate) seriously deviates from its average state, which is difficult to occur statistically. Generally speaking, extreme weather and climate events refer to small probability events that occur once every 50 years or once every 100 years. With global warming, the frequency of extreme weather and climate events has changed, showing an increasing trend. The latest assessment report issued by the United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) IPCC)2007 shows that extreme weather events, especially extreme events such as heavy rainfall and high temperature heat waves, have been increasing in the past 50 years, and it is expected that such extreme events will appear more frequently in the future. The World Meteorological Organization (WMO) issued a statement on this year's extreme events, saying that this year's extreme events not only increased significantly around the world, but also spread widely, including heavy rainfall in Southeast Asia, an unprecedented tropical storm in the Gulf in June, heavy rainfall and floods in southern China, floods in Britain from May to July, heat waves in Southeast Europe and Russia, and abnormal snowfall in parts of South Africa and South America.
