Climate Change Worsened Storm Boris Flooding, Study Finds
Original: Storm Boris Study Finds Climate Change Amplifies Flooding Beyond Precipitation Increases
A new study on Storm Boris, the deadly central European flooding event, concludes that climate change amplified the disaster in ways that go beyond simply increasing rainfall. Researchers say warming altered conditions so flooding exceeded what higher precipitation alone would explain. The findings add to a growing body of attribution research linking individual extreme weather events to human-caused climate change.
Why now: Storm Boris caused severe, deadly flooding in central Europe, and the new attribution findings sharpen debate over climate change's role in such disasters.
