Understanding the vertical temperature structure of recent record-shattering heatwaves

Abstract T ′ T ′ T ′ T ′ T ′ T ′ hPa. Near the surface, all three processes contributed positively to T ′ T ′ T ′ T ′ T ′ T ′ over the course of these events is fully consistent with the notion of heat domes, within which air recirculates and accumulates heat. Our results for the first time document the four-dimensional functioning of anticyclone–heatwave couplets in terms of advection, adiabatic cooling or warming, and diabatic processes and suggest that a complex interplay between large-scale dynamics, moist convection, and boundary layer processes ultimately determines near-surface temperatures during heatwaves.
