Would love to hear perspectives on the name of our #Risk MSc King's Geography: forms.office.com/e/uyKExzHQQe -- survey apparently takes an average of 40 seconds to complete!

We know that climate change may soon drive heat waves hot enough to overwhelm even the young and healthy. But what are the societal impacts of this approaching threat? Come work King's Geography to find out! tinyurl.com/2uu4jt7b #climatechange #extremeheat #adaptation

Tune into National Geographic TV or Disney+ UK from this Sunday (13/10) to see 'Expedition Amazon' featuring our very own Tom Matthews, as he scales the spectacular Nevado Ausangate to install one of the world's highest weather stations. #PerpetualPlanet kcl.ac.uk/news/national-…


Tom Matthews Cascade Tuholske & I find that peak values of wet-bulb temperature and heat index often occur in the evening or even overnight. As the moisture-laden sea breeze pushes inland, humid heat rises right alongside, overwhelming the daytime temperature max.





Excited to share the below news about a new weather station network on the highest mountain in the Americas. Argentine partners at IANIGLA - CONICET led by Pierre Pitte were exceptional. Excited to watch/analyze data! Tom Matthews Mount Washington Observatory (MWOBS) National Geographic Society
