A new study from an international research team, including WorldPop at the University of Southampton, introduces the Chinese Multi-Hazard Early Warning Dataset - over one million official warning records (2022–2025) across four administrative levels. The open dataset supports research into risk communication, disaster preparedness and resilience.

In our latest peer-reviewed research paper, authors Neil Aellen, Swiss Re; Andreas Prein, Institute of Atmospheric and Climate Science; and Elisabeth Viktor, Swiss Re, synthesise current evidence on historical trends and future changes in the principal severe convective storms (SCS) sub-perils relevant for catastrophe modelling: #hail, #tornadoes, damaging straight-line winds including derechos, and SCS-related extreme precipitation.

“Why the increase?
Our understanding of climate risk is only as good as our understanding of our exposure to hazards. The better we can account for what is at risk, the better we can measure risk in a changing world.
In this new study [link above], [they] investigate[d] how damage to the building stock across the Arctic, a key impact of permafrost degradation, is underestimated because of underdeveloped exposure information. With National Science Foundation (NSF) supercomputers and 400 TB of Vantor satellite imagery, [they] detected building footprints across the Arctic and classified their use types using deep learning models. Then, using Polar Geospatial Center's ArcticDEM digital surface model, [they] estimated the total floor space of each residential building. This move from 2D to 3D representation of the building stock was the largest contributor to increased building damage.
Properly estimating this consequence is necessary for understanding the near future of the Arctic economy. Knowing the magnitude of damages is critical for sustaining the communities and livelihoods of more than 5 million people that call the Arctic home. There are also much broader implications. With the Arctic continuing to emerge as a strategic centerpiece in global affairs and the global economy, accurately quantifying the physical shocks to its built environment will allow researchers to more effectively represent the Arctic in global climate economic models. More precise international policymaking will also be enabled by these improvements.
Ultimately, this research highlights a similar challenge in completely different regions of the world (e.g., Southeast Asia, Sub-Saharan Africa) where exposure is constantly evolving alongside rapid population growth and urbanization. Building stock information can quickly become outdated as these changes occur; satellite remote sensing and AI are key players in keeping up with these changes and supporting data-driven disaster risk management…”

#JCRR RESEARCH ARTICLE NOTIFICATION: Our latest peer-reviewed research is now live!

In this article, authors Balaji Mani, Thomas Loridan, Nicolas Bruneau, Nic Hannah, and David Schmid, Reask LTD, introduce “Metryc”, a probabilistic modelling system designed to capture the distribution of spatial wind risk at landfall in terms of local-scale wind gusts.

Polls show most people believe in climate change, and think governments are not doing enough.

Here are a few things that I think the ("western") public has *not* yet accepted:

Feel free to add to the list

1) Air travel will have to be electrified ASAP, or largely go away

2) Sea travel will have to be decarbonised ASAP, or largely go away

3) Coastal areas are bad places to live

🌍👧 Where are children most exposed to floods, droughts and extreme heat?

UNICEF's new Global Child Hazard Database combines high-resolution climate hazard mapping with WorldPop open population data to identify child climate risk hotspots and support better decision-making.

🌎 Super El Niño 2026: global models increasingly point to a potentially very strong El Niño developing during H2 2026.

For Europe, the most relevant impacts may be indirect rather than meteorological: LNG market volatility, hydro generation variability, commodity price shocks and supply chain disruptions.

At Weathernews, we are closely monitoring the evolution of this climate signal and its implications for the energy sector.

The objective of this latest research paper on #JCRR is to understand the impact on insured losses of changes in the frequency-severity distribution of landfalling #hurricanes. 

For the research, authors Ruth Petrie, Dongwon Han, Ludovico Nicotina, Adam Alvarez, and Tyler Cox, Inigo, present a frequency-aware quantile mapping (FAQM) approach for adjusting #hurricane wind speeds and losses in catastrophe models: https://journalofcrr.com/research/04-02-petrie-et-al/
