High mortality risk found from increase in hot-dry events in China

As global warming intensifies and populations continue to grow, the likelihood of extreme high-temperature events is increasing. Hot–dry compound events, in particular, pose a direct threat to human health. High temperatures can have prolonged and delayed effects on people's health; and under conditions of low relative humidity, the mortality associated with extreme heat rises significantly.

Regional trends may explain Hadley circulation intensity discrepancy

The Hadley circulation, a fundamental component of Earth's atmospheric system, plays a crucial role in global climate regulation by transporting energy and moisture between the tropics and higher latitudes. However, recent studies have revealed a puzzling discrepancy: while reanalysis data suggest a strengthening of the global zonal mean Hadley circulation intensity, climate model simulations predict a weakening trend. What causes this contradiction?
