Heatwaves hit the most vulnerable hardest

Published 6.11.2026

Climate change is increasingly impacting people's health all over the world. As heatwaves become hotter and more frequent, the most vulnerable suffer the most.

Researchers and experts warn FIFA over World Cup heat risk and player’s health

Published 21.5.2026

Researchers and medical experts are warning FIFA that the measures put in place to address extreme heat during the football World Cup this summer are inadequate and could put players' health at risk.

Global warming must peak below 2°C to limit tipping point risks

Published 19.2.2026

Global warming must peak below 2°C then return under 1.5°C as quickly as possible to limit the risk of dangerous “tipping points”, experts say.

The Winding Road to 1.5 Degrees

Published 3.10.2025

To limit global warming to around 1.5 degrees, we must remove CO₂ from the atmosphere. Exactly how much can be removed is uncertain. The only thing that seems sure is that it will be a massive cleanup job. Nevertheless, many countries have this as a strategy to reach their climate goals.

Air pollution cuts in East Asia likely accelerated global warming

Published 14.7.2025

Global warming has accelerated since 2010. A new CICERO-led study shows that unmasking of greenhouse-gas-driven warming due to a substantial cleanup in air pollution over East Asia can explain it.

Will develop advanced early warning and decision-support systems for heat and air pollution in Delhi and Kolkata

Published 18.3.2025

Today, there are separate early warning systems for extreme heat and air pollution in India. A new project will assess exposure and health impacts from concurrent extreme heat and air pollution in Delhi and Kolkata and work to make a joint early warning system for both these challenges.

Separating land carbon uptake from net-zero emissions

Published 19.11.2024

How are net zero emissions defined? It matters. It is the difference between either halting or continuing global warming, writes senior researcher Glen Peters in this blog about a new study published in Nature.

New tool provides knowledge on heat stress vulnerability in cities for more targeted adaptation

Published 9.10.2024

Heat-related deaths and diseases are a major concern in Europe amid increasing extended periods of extreme heat. This study proposes a novel way of quantifying and projecting future vulnerability to heat stress in different areas of a city, providing local decision-makers with knowledge for designing more effective adaptation strategies to minimize health impacts of heat stress.

Take climate-changing aerosols seriously

Published 22.11.2022

The dangerous impacts of aerosol changes on vulnerable regions should have been a priority at COP27 after climate policymakers agreed a breakthrough deal to support these parts of the world, scientists have claimed.

The heat is here to stay

Published 21.10.2022

Europe is warming faster than the global average, and has seen a dramatic increase in the number of heatwaves over the past 40 years. This trend will likely continue, even with major reductions in greenhouse gas emissions.

Projects

Combined impact of heat and air pollution exposure on human health in India: Evidence and solutions (COPE)

The COPE project will develop advanced Early Warning and Decision-support Systems for heat and air pollution in the two major Indian urban conglomerates - Delhi and Kolkata.

MYRIAD-EU: Improving disaster risk management through multi-hazard and multi-sector risk assessment

The EU-project MYRIAD-EU aims to enable decision-makers to develop forward-looking disaster risk management pathways that takes into account trade-offs and synergies across sectors, hazards and scales.

Embodying Climate Change (EmCliC) - transdiciplinary research on urban overheating

EmCliC is a three-year research project that brings together social anthropology, sociology, climate science, epidemiology, atmospheric physics and novel technology, to understand and demonstrate how people experience climate change on a daily basis.

ACRoBEAR – Arctic Community Resilience to Boreal Environmental change: Assessing Risks from fire and disease

How resilient are Arctic communities to boreal environmental change and risks from fire and disease?

Quantifying health risks from heat and air pollution (HEATCOST)

HEATCOST will quantify health risks attributable to heat and air pollution (with a particular focus on air pollution from wildfires) in main world regions under selected climate scenarios and socioeconomic pathways.

4C – Climate-Carbon Interactions in the Current Century

The EU-funded project 4C (Climate-Carbon Interactions in the Current Century) aims to fill the knowledge gap surrounding climate sensitivity to carbon dioxide emissions by reducing the uncertainty in our quantitative understanding of carbon-climate interactions and feedbacks.

CONSTRAIN

Predicting how the climate will change over the next 20-50 years, as well as defining emissions pathways to keep the world on track, requires a better understanding of how several human and natural factors will affect the climate in coming decades. These include how atmospheric aerosols affect the Earth’s radiation budget, and the roles of clouds and oceans in driving climate change.

Research groups

Atmospheric Sciences

The research group covers a broad range of topics within the atmospheric sciences. We are primarily a modelling group, studying radiative forcing of the climate system, and the role of gases, aerosols and clouds.

Climate and health

The climate and health research group is an interdisciplinary group with strong competence within a range of areas of relevance to health impact assessment.

Climate and nature risk

The research group models and analyzes climate impacts on nature, society and the economy, performs scenario analyses, and conducts stress tests based on its knowledge and expertise in using climate and economic models and climate and other environmental data.

Climate System

The Climate System group conducts research to understand the physical changes and evolution of the global and regional climate system, the underlying driving human-induced and natural processes, and the subsequent consequences.
