Latest research led by Prof. Lu Mengqian (left) and Dr. Cheng Tat-Fan (right) from HKUST’s Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering reveals that as the climate warms, the increase in fast-propagating MJO events will heighten the risk of “subseasonal precipitation whiplashes,” – sudden swings between extremely dry and wet weather – as early as 2028.
