00:00What were the main drivers behind this extreme heat wave we have seen across Western Europe?
00:07Thanks for the invitation. Yes, this heat wave was the result of a combination of natural weather patterns acting on
00:15top of a warning climate.
00:18This is a persistent high pressure system, often referred to as a heat dome, trapped hot, dry air over Western
00:26Europe for several days.
00:28And this suppressed cloud formation, increased solar heating and prevented cooler Atlantic air from reaching the region.
00:36So dry soils further amplified temperatures because less energy was used for evaporation and more was converted into sensible heat.
00:46Exceptional warm Mediterranean sea temperatures were also contributed to warmer nighttime conditions and increased heat stress.
00:53So the key message is that while atmospheric circulation triggered the event, climate change made it substantially hotter than it
01:02would have a being otherwise.
01:03Thank you very much for coming in.
01:04Let's hope for you now.
