Description:

The paradigm of compound extremes shifts from hot-dry spells over ex-polar lands to warm-wet extremes over polar ice sheets. This warm-wet synchrony is likely driven by intrusions of warm-moist air from lower latitudes, and under global warming, its net effect could destabilize the polar ice sheets and accelerate global sea level rise.
