2 Slide 1
3 Quantifying the risk of extreme events Large diversity in extremes, in terms of climate processes, land surface responses and human impacts (Almost) all extremes can be regarded as compound events: Two or more extreme events occurring simultaneously or successively Combination of extreme events with underlying conditions which will amplify the events Combinations of events which are not themselves extreme but lead to an extreme event or impact when combined. Operate over a variety of (interacting) spatial and temporal scales The perspective of the stakeholder is key if we are to understand the system boundaries and define the event whose risk is to be quantified Slide 2

5 The role of the stakeholder defining the event Hazard Impact event Synoptic event Heat wave Event 1 heat impact Stakeholder A Wild fire Event 2 fire impact Stakeholder B Slide 4
6 Relationship between climate forcing and the impact Slide 5
7 Human systems can induce interactions! Physical system fall Flow Water level Astron. Tide Slide 6
8 Why focus on the compound nature of extremes now? Non-stationarity! Slide 7
9 The increasing complexity of quantifying risk 1. Flood 1. Inferring risk from historical observations Slide 8

14 The challenge of addressing compound extremes Almost all extremes of importance to society are compound, consisting of multiple interacting processes occurring at various spatial and temporal scales Both catchment change and climate change are challenging many conventional methods for quantifying the risk of extremes Need to think about methodology to identify which processes and interactions are important for any given situation and then ensure we can model those processes and interactions Slide 13
