Co-occurrence not uncommon Commonplace as these examples may seem, the risks of such compound weather events have long been underestimated and even ignored by scientists. For this I see a number of ...

The scientists defined 'compound hot-dry events’ as summers in which the average temperature was higher than in 90% of the summers between 1950 and 1980, and precipitation was simultaneously lower ...

Do you know what a compound flood event is? Hurricane Sally is a good example of this dangerous situation.

The South Carolina (USA) disaster is the latest high-profile example of compound weather, or two or more concurrent events that collectively yield a result worse than if each had occurred on its own.
