      Article
      Open Access
      Wildfires are becoming an increasing threat to many communities worldwide. There has been substantial progress towards understanding the proximal causes of increased fire activity in recent years at regional and national ...

    • Low-frequency atmospheric variability patterns and synoptic types linked to large floods in the lower Ebro river basin 

      Peña, Juan Carlos; Balasch Solanes, Josep Carles; Schulte, Lothar; Barriendos Valve, Mariano; Ruiz Bellet, Josep Lluís; Prohom, Marc; Tuset Mestre, Jordi; Mazón Bueso, Jordi; Castelltort, Francesc Xavier (2022-04-15)
      Article
      Open Access
      This study analyzes the atmospheric variability that caused the largest floods affecting the town of Tortosa, Spain, in the mouth of the Ebro River (northeast Iberian Peninsula). The Tortosa flood database and flood marks ...

    • Modelling of atmospheric hazards and severe weather phenomena toWestern Mediterranean basin coastal floods since 1960 

      Pino González, David; Peña, Juan Carlos; Gil-Guirado, Salvador; Pérez-Morales, Alfredo; López-Martínez, Francisco (2019)
      Conference report
      Open Access
      The main goal of this study is to present a methodological approach to improve synoptic classifications associatedto basin coastal floods. A further step is done towards an objective reclassification of new events to improve ...

    • Synoptic patterns associated to Western Mediterranean basin coastal floods since 1960 

      Gil-Guirado, Salvador; Pérez-Morales, Alfredo; Peña, Juan Carlos; Mazón Bueso, Jordi; López-Martínez, Francisco; Pino González, David (2018)
      Conference report
      Open Access
      The analysis of long time-series related to floods supports the identification of climatic/synoptic processes naturally governing the occurrence of flooding and thus improves the projection of these hydrologic ...

    • Synoptic weather patterns conducive to lightning-ignited wildfires in Catalonia 

      Pineda, Nicolau; Peña, Juan Carlos; Soler, Xavier; Aran, Montse; Pérez Zanón, Núria (Copernicus Publications, 2022-06)
      Article
      Open Access
      Wildfires cause substantial losses to socio-economic and natural assets, especially in Mediterranean climate regions. Despite human activity being the main cause of wildfires in Mediterranean European countries, lightning-ignited ...
