Riverine heatwaves are an emergent climate change risk - Nature Water Riverine heatwaves have severe consequences for society, the economy and ecosystems and are becoming more frequent with climate change. This Perspective addresses research efforts to better understand...

Our Perspective by Amber van Hamel and colleagues @cchartierrescan.bsky.social @mariagrundmann.bsky.social @manuelaibrunner.bsky.social emphasizes that climate change will worsen riverine heatwaves, demanding better data and models to address them.

Last week, James Kirchner, @harshberia.bsky.social and @mfhydro.bsky.social visited us in Davos to discuss the ongoing field study of river water temperature and their study on river isotopes! Thanks for the nice discussions!

Meteorological and hydrological transitions are less related than you might think: only 10% and 25% of dry-to-wet transitions propagate to drought-to-flood transitions at a monthly and yearly time scale, respectively.
