Refining Methods for Attributing Health Impacts to Climate Change: A Heat-Mortality Case Study in Zürich

Published:September 2025

Author(s):Rupert F. Stuart-Smith, Ana M. Vicedo-Cabrera, Sihan Li, Friederike E.L. Otto, Kristine Belesova, Andy Haines, Luke J. Harrington, Jeremy J. Hess, Rashmi Venkatraman, Thom Wetzer, Alistair Woodward & Kristie L. Ebi

Publisher:Climatic Change

This paper provides refined methodologies for assessing heat mortality attributed to climate change, and found that almost 1,700 heat-related deaths can be attributed to climate change from 1969-2018.Read More →

Systematic Attribution of Heatwaves to the Emissions of Carbon Majors

Published:September 2025

Author(s):Yann Quilcaille et al.

Publisher:Nature

This study finds that climate change contributed to the intensification and likelihood of 213 heatwaves between 2000 and 2023, and 180 carbon majors substantially contributed to that.Read More →

Global assessment of historical changes in extreme fire weather: Insight from CMIP6 ensembles and implications for probabilistic attribution to global warming

Published:September 2025

Author(s):Zhongwei Liu, Jonathan M. Eden, Bastien Dieppois, Igor Drobyshev, Folmer Krikken, Matthew Blackett

Publisher:Global and Planetary Change

This peer-reviewed study developed a framework to examine how climate change may influence wildfire events using a multi-model analysis, which confirms an increase in probability and duration in wildfires due to global temperature anomalies.Read More →

Analysis: Calculating Near-Term U.S. Damages from U.S. Greenhouse Gas Power Sector Emissions from 2025-2035

Published:August 2025

Author(s):Rick Duke

This analysis projects the climate damages that would result from the power sector's greenhouse gas emissions from 2025-2035, if unabated, to be at least $11.1 billion, and likely much more.Read More →

This dataset underlies analysis which projects the climate damages that would result from the power sector's greenhouse gas emissions from 2025-2035, if unabated, to be at least $11.1 billion, and likely much more.Read More →

Detecting and attributing climate change effects on vegetation: Australia as a test case

Published:August 2025

Author(s):Laura J. Williams, Rachael V. Gallagher, Sami W. Rifai, Matthew A. Adeleye, Patrick J. Baker, David M. J. S. Bowman, Jake Eckersley, Jacqueline R. England, Michael-Shawn Fletcher, Pauline F. Grierson, Assaf Inbar, Jürgen Knauer, Clare M. Stephens, Raphaël Trouvé, Belinda E. Medlyn

Publisher:Plants People Planet

This peer-reviewed study performs a meta-analysis of existing literature on attribution of vegetation change in Australia to climate variability, finding that such attribution is difficult to prove and suggesting new methodologies.Read More →

A call to refine fire attribution: expanding the FAR statistic to capture the complexity of Los Angeles extreme fires

Published:August 2025

Author(s):Chris Huntingford, Douglas I Kelley and Maria L F Barbosa

Publisher:Environmental Research Letters

This perspective examines the causes of the January 2025 Los Angeles wildfires, including climate change, human land use, campfires, faulty powerlines, and other human-driven factors, and suggests improvements to statistical analyses.Read More →
