The ICARUS team participated in “American Geophysical Union (AGU) annual meeting” held on 11 Dec 2019 in San Francisco, USA to give an oral presentation entitled “Extreme events of perceived temperature over Europe in the future: the humidity role”. Future projections of extreme events of perceived temperature (considering both temperature and humidity) over Europe were presented. These look different from what we may expect for extreme events considering temperature only: northern regions will be subject to stress conditions more than what we may expect considering extreme temperature only. In addition to this, ICARUS findings suggested it is critical to take into account adaptation strategies to heat stress conditions also over region never considered before.
