Hurricanes, floods, droughts, heat waves… these are phenomena that occur infrequently but when they do occur they can have devastating effects. In the study of weather, they are called extreme events.

In this talk for the Researchers Night of the University of the Republic (Uruguay), four young researchers from the international group CAFE (Climate Advanced Forecasting of sub-seasonal Extremes) will explore examples of the extreme events that we study, how our research can help early detection of these phenomena with greater anticipation and precision, as well as what scientists, politicians, and all of us as a society can do to mitigate their negative effects in the future.

  • Iago Pérez (Universidad de la República, Montevideo, Uruguay)
  • Meriem Krouma (Aria Technologies, Paris, France)
  • Niclas Rieger (Centre de Recerca Matemàtica, Barcelona, ​​Spain)
  • Noémie Ehstand (Institute of Interdisciplinary Physics and Complex Systems, Palma de Mallorca, Spain)
