Fig. 4: Extremeness of the joint temperature and precipitation conditions during summer for the period 2001–2022 and fraction of land affected by a CHD per year for chosen sub-regions.
From: European hot and dry summers are projected to become more frequent and expand northwards
Sub-regions ordered from South to North from West to East in (a–i). The bivariate exceedance probability of hot and dry summers averaged over the land area of the whole region pSK is shown in grey. In red, the fraction of land is presented, which is experiencing an extremely rare CHD in the year. The vertical black line highlights the CHD with the least pSK.
