- Over recent decades, "forest disturbance" by fire has increased in most of the planet's forest zones. The increase in area, frequency, and severity of forest fires creates a positive feedback that increases global warming. (en)
- Globally, wildfires and deforestation have reduced forests' net absorption of greenhouse gases, reducing their effectiveness at mitigating climate change. Global warming increases forest fires that release more greenhouse gases, creating a feedback loop that causes more warming. (en)
- Over decades, the average number of days spent in heat waves in the U.S. annually has increased, based on increases in both the average annual number of heat waves and on their average durations. (en)
- Also, heat wave seasons have grown in length. (en)
- US heat waves have increased in frequency, average duration, and intensity. (en)
- New high temperature records have outpaced new low temperature records on a growing portion of Earth's surface. (en)
- Climate Central's review of climate attribution studies covered almost 750 extreme weather events and trends, of various event types. The review found that climate change made almost all studied event types substantially more likely or more severe—with cold/snow/ice events being the exception. (en)
- Wildfire disasters have increased substantially in recent decades. Climate change intensifies heatwaves and droughts that dry vegetation, which in turn fuels wildfires. (en)
- New Orleans submerged after Hurricane Katrina, September 2005 (en)
- Map of increasing heatwave trends over the midlatitudes and Europe, July–August 1979–2020 (en)
- 3.786912E10 (dbd:second)
- The sixth IPCC Assessment Report included projections of changes in average soil moisture. (en)
- Large increases in both the frequency and intensity of extreme weather events are expected. Extreme heat events are forecast to be among the most affected by global warming. (en)
- Water temperature increases caused by climate change intensified peak wind speeds in all 2024 Atlantic hurricanes. (en)
