The 2021 Western North American Heatwave and Its Subseasonal Predictions

Hai Lin et al.

Summary: This study evaluates the ability of 10 Subseasonal-to-Seasonal prediction models to predict above-normal temperatures in western North America 2-3 weeks in advance. It is found that most models were able to predict the high temperatures in Western Canada during June 28-July 4 as early as June 10. However, for forecasts initialized earlier than June 17, none of the models could accurately capture the magnitude of the observed temperature anomaly. The study identifies the importance of two processes: an upper tropospheric wave train associated with the boreal summer intraseasonal oscillation in Southeast Asia, and an anomalous North Pacific atmospheric river leading to high moisture conditions. Most models were able to predict the wave train across the North Pacific, but a realistic representation of moisture transport and its pattern appears crucial for the extended-range forecast of this heatwave.

The 2021 Pacific Northwest Heat Wave and Associated Blocking: Meteorology and the Role of an Upstream Cyclone as a Diabatic Source of Wave Activity

Emily Neal et al.

Summary: The study investigates the meteorological and dynamical conditions that led to extreme heat in the Pacific Northwest from late June to early July 2021. It finds that an upper-level atmospheric blocking and surface cyclogenesis off the coast of Alaska contributed to the extreme heat event. The study also highlights the critical role of a localized non-diabatic source in the formation and strength of the blocking.

Bushtit (Psaltriparus minimus) nestling mortality associated with unprecedented June 2021 heatwave in Portland, Oregon

Sarah A. Sloane et al.

Summary: Between June 26 and 28, 2021, a heatwave in the Pacific Northwest of the United States had unprecedented effects on Bushtit nests. Out of 8 monitored nests, 3 experienced 100% nestling mortality while 4 broods survived partially. The heatwave also caused at least one additional brood to fledge early. The study suggests that proximity to a water source and younger age were factors that contributed to the survival of broods.

Contribution of Glacier Runoff during Heat Waves in the Nooksack River Basin USA

Mauri S. Pelto et al.

Summary: The response of glaciers to climate change in the North Cascades, Washington has led to a significant decline in glacier runoff in the Nooksack Basin. Glacier runoff plays a crucial role in mitigating low flow and warm water temperatures during the summer, particularly during heat waves. Observations have shown that glacier ablation affects the discharge and water temperature in the North Fork Nooksack River. The ongoing climate change will likely further decrease summer baseflow and increase water temperatures, which could have negative impacts on salmonid species.

Rapid attribution analysis of the extraordinary heat wave on the Pacific coast of the US and Canada in June 2021

Sjoukje Y. Philip et al.

Summary: In late June 2021, record-breaking temperatures in the US and Canada's Pacific Northwest resulted in increased deaths and health issues. Through a multi-model, multi-method analysis, it was found that human-induced climate change significantly influenced the probability and intensity of these extreme heat waves. The study emphasizes the urgent need for adaptation and mitigation strategies to address the significant consequences of our rapidly warming climate.

An anomalous warm-season trans-Pacific atmospheric river linked to the 2021 western North America heatwave

Ruping Mo et al.

Summary: Based on analyses of observation-based data and numerical weather prediction model output, this study reveals that a warm-season atmospheric river moved from Southeast Asia across the North Pacific in June 2021, contributing heat and moisture to a heatwave event in western North America. The movement of this system resulted in substantial spillover of moisture and sensible heat, forming a positive feedback mechanism that potentially led to the expansion of the heatwave event.

Analysis of community deaths during the catastrophic 2021 heat dome: Early evidence to inform the public health response during subsequent events in greater Vancouver, Canada

Sarah B. Henderson et al.

Summary: The record-setting heat dome in British Columbia, Canada in the summer of 2021 led to a significant increase in community deaths, particularly in households without air conditioning. Analysis of available data revealed that factors such as deprivation, lack of green spaces, age, and sex were associated with an increased risk of death during the heat wave.

Summary: This article reports on the unprecedented heatwave that hit the Pacific Northwest of North America in late June-early July 2021, and its impact on ecosystems and communities. It presents a unique dataset quantifying the impact on conifer trees and tests a fundamental theory in plant physiology using this exceptional event as a "field experiment."

The 2020 Siberian heat wave

James E. Overland et al.

Summary: In 2020, Siberia experienced an extreme heat wave with anomalies in monthly temperatures, largely due to the stratospheric polar vortex and tropospheric jet stream. The Arctic Oscillation set extreme positive records, contributing to the persistent heat wave. High tropospheric geopotential heights over Asia influenced temperatures in May and June.

Causes of the Record-Breaking Pacific Northwest Heatwave, Late June 2021

James E. Overland

Summary: The extreme heat event that hit the Pacific Northwest in late June 2021 caused hundreds of deaths, loss of marine life, and forests. The event was triggered by the split of the polar vortex in the Arctic, accompanied by warming, which may represent a critical state in large-scale atmospheric circulation variability.

Investigating the Relationship Between Peak Snow-Water Equivalent and Snow Timing Indices in the Western United States and Alaska

A. Heldmyer et al.

Summary: Understanding the distribution of snow-water equivalent (SWE) is crucial for predicting water resources in the western United States. This study found that most variance in peak SWE can be explained by the timing of snow disappearance, onset, and cover duration, with variations primarily related to climate conditions. The use of remotely sensed snow timing information was shown to be effective in quantifying spatial patterns of peak SWE over the past two decades.

Marit Van Tiel et al.

Summary: The study found that in warm and dry summer days, glaciers have a varied compensating effect on streamflow, especially in catchments with different glacier coverages. Additionally, it was observed that glacier meltwater remains an important contributor to streamflow in late summer under certain conditions.
