The Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research (PIK) hosted the 2nd General Assembly of the COMPASS project, which took place on 12th and 13th of February 2025, at Potsdam Germany.
On 11 February 2025, the 2nd COMPASS workshop on impact attribution of disasters took place at the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research (PIK). The event was filled with engaging
This work is part of the work package WP5 “Demonstrator with steps towards an operational deployment” of the COMPASS project, whose overarching objective is to characterise compound extremes in current
There are currently many well-established climate attribution methodologies for single driver extremes, however, there is very little literature on more complex extremes such as compound, sequences and cascading hazard events.
Tropical cyclone-induced storm surge is a major coastal risk, which will be further amplified by rising sea levels under global warming. Here, a computational efficient is presented, globally applicable modeling
The 55th Annual Meeting of the World Economic Forum was held in Davos, Switzerland on 20-24th January 2025, and convened the foremost leaders from government, business and civil society –
The COMPASS project recently released a report on “Dataset of tropical cyclone-affected areas”. The overarching goal of the COMPASS project is to develop a harmonised methodological framework for climate and
This policy brief highlights the critical need to address the complex and compounding impacts of climate extremes, driven by climate change and non-climate factors, to ensure effective disaster risk management
The COMPASS project recently prepared a “Report on dataset on best-available methods and climate datasets“. There are currently many well-established climate attribution methodologies for single driver extremes, however, there is
The Caribbean region is prone to the strong winds and low air pressures of tropical cyclones and their corresponding storm surge that driving coastal flooding. To protect coastal communities from
COMPASS aims to develop a harmonised, yet flexible, methodological framework for climate and impact attribution of various complex extremes that includes compound, sequences and cascading hazard events
