A collection of articles on Climate and Weather Extremes was recently published in Nature to coincide with the opening of the American Geophysical Union Fall Meeting 2018. The Collection, which highlights research looking at extreme events across the globe and their prediction, is an outcome of the Subseasonal-to-Seasonal (S2S) Prediction Project Extremes Workshop that was held at International Research Institute for Climate and Society at Columbia University in December 2016 (Workshop website).
You can access the collection of papers on the Nature website.
