What is it about?

Anthropogenic effects, like changes in the atmosphere's optical properties, do not only affect mean global temperatures. They clearly modify the intrinsic variability of climate, including the distribution of extreme events. The purpose of this paper is to better understand the latter effects of changes in greenhouse gases.

Why is it important?

The paper uses methods from the mathematical theory of nonlinear and chaotic dynamical systems subject to time-dependent forcing. These methods help us shed light on the changes in weather and in its persistent anomalies under the effects of the seasons and of positive or negative trends in global temperatures.

Perspectives

The opportunity to interact with both young researchers and esteemed colleagues is always a great experience, and particularly so on this occasion. Together, we have found striking results of what is largely considered as a rather arcane corner of mathematical theory
