Anthropogenic warming is accelerating recent heatwaves in Africa
Abstract Climate change is intensifying extreme events worldwide, with Africa emerging as a uniquely vulnerable hotspot where heatwaves increasingly threaten populations and ecosystems. This study quantifies the roles of anthropogenic aerosols, greenhouse gases, and internal variability in trends of...
