Aussie climate scientist specialising in compound heatwaves/extreme heat. Previously at WSU Vancouver and Monash University. Opinions are my own 🌏 (she/her)
Simultaneously occurring large #HeatWaves became larger (+45%), more frequent (x7), and more intense (+17%) since the 1980s, posing an increasing risk to society. Changes are due to #GlobalWarming and changing mid-latitude atmospheric patterns

This week in Kolkata, sunny skies and temps of 40-42C; by July, low 30s and rain. How might this sort of dry/humid heat contrast change in a warming world (and why)? For answers, attend @ecoffel's Risk KAN: Compound Events webinar - Friday 4/26 at 2pm UTC! https://t.co/KoAy66jX4h
Exciting news! The votes are in and our new name is… CompoundNET! 🎉 To celebrate, we also have a new logo! 🤩 A huge thank you to everyone for contributing to our community to date. We’re looking forward to continuing to build our network together 😊
Do you research humid-heat or heat stress? Come check out my poster at #AGU23 on our new fast, highly accurate wet-bulb temperature method. Thursday 14 Dec, 8:30-12:50, poster board 0749.
Join us this week for our next webinar! We are excited to host @Charuni_ and Nina Ridder talking heatwaves and compound risks. The webinar will have an Australian focus and an Australian time, we hope you can make it wherever you are. Zoom link: https://t.co/OfSP2uDKUr
Important update if you work with wet-bulb temperature!! Thanks to a careful re-examination of common implementations of the Davies-Jones algorithm by Rob Warren (BOM), plus convos with @CassRo314 @JonathanRBuzan and myself, several non-negligible coding errors have been found.
🌟 New blog post! Check out the post by @CassRo314@kan_risk reminding us of how to stay connected with the Compound Events community after the end of DAMOCLES!

Stay tuned for upcoming posts on our blog! 🚀
Not long now until the @kan_risk Compound Events webinar on (often-increasing) hydroclimatic risks! Featuring: @DirkEilander on compound-flood modeling, and @BirchCathryn on African humid heat. Sep 12 at 14:00 UTC! For Zoom info, see https://t.co/hnwAWwVRmv
The @kan_risk Compound Events webinar series is pleased to feature two talks on (often-increasing) hydroclimatic risks next week: @DirkEilander on compound-flood modeling, and @BirchCathryn on tropical humid heat. Sep 12 at 14:00 UTC! For Zoom info, see https://t.co/NU13UQIldJ
AMOS 2024 call for abstracts! If your research considers compounding hazards and/or drivers, please consider submitting an abstract to our session. Abstracts due 1st of September 2023 https://t.co/wfrBnoPaTP @AMOSupdates
I can't wait to discover new heatwave research at our #AGU23 session: GC020 - Changing Heatwaves in a Warming World: Mechanisms, Predictability, Interconnectedness, and Impacts on Society and Environment. Please consider submitting an abstract if you're a heatwave researcher!
