Spatio-temporal changes in the heatwaves and coldwaves in Spain (1950-2018): Influence of the East Atlantic pattern
The Iberian Peninsula has a complex orography, which determines an important altitudinal gradient and alternation of valleys and mountains, and periodic cold/warm advections air. In the present investigation the evolution of the characteristics of heatwaves (HWs) and coldwaves (CWs) (number of event...
