It's the first time the label has been applied to any of the 28 heat wave results produced by the tool since it was publicly announced in June
A new rapid analysis says climate change made August heat waves over some of Canada's most northern – and rapidly warming – regions at least 10 times more likely.
The result is at the highest end of the three-level scale used by the department's rapid attribution tool to describe the influence of climate change on a heat wave. The rapid attribution tool, currently in its pilot phase, uses models to compare current and pre-industrial climates to analyze how human-caused carbon emissions, driven by the burning of fossil fuels, has influenced extreme weather.
