Extrêmes météorologiques et changements climatiques : retour sur les projections
Les catastrophes d’origine climatique et météorologique qui secouent la planète depuis quelques années attirent l’attention du public, des gouvernements et des médias. La présente brochure donne un aperçu des phénomènes extrêmes qui ont eu lieu au cours de la dernière décennie (2001–2010). Certains se comparent aux événements les plus importants survenus dans l’histoire, voire les dépassent en intensité, durée ou étendue.
