Speaker: Andrew Chingos (St Andrews) Title: Amplified decreases in relative humidity over tropical land constrained by physical theory Abstract: Near-surface relative humidity is a fundamental metric of land climate modulating temperature, precipitation, evapotranspiration, wildfires, and heat stress in a warming world. The response of land relative humidity to climate change is substantial but uncertain, with models projecting a wide range of future changes. Previous work showed that models fail to reproduce observed historical decreases in land relative humidity, raising doubts about future…
