Description:This fifth edition of explaining extreme events of the previous year (2015) from a climate perspective contin- ues to provide evidence that climate change is altering some extreme event risk. Without exception, all the heat-related events studied in this year’s report were found to have been made more intense or likely due to human-induced climate change, and this was discernible even for those events strongly influenced by the 2015 El Niño. Furthermore, many papers in this year’s report demonstrate that attribution science is capable of separat- ing the effects of natural drivers including the strong 2015 El Niño from the influences of long-term human-induced climate change.
