"Behavioral, ecological, and evolutionary responses to catastrophic climatic occurrences" is the topic of this article. There is convincing evidence that some severe weather and climate phenomena are now more common and severe in recent decades. Although a link between these shifts and human-caused climate change has been established, assessing the impact of specific extreme climatic events (ECEs) is challenging. Recent advancements in the field of measured and predicted climatic variation, event attribution tools, and mathematical analysis have facilitated rapid event attribution progress. Extreme temperature events, especially those involving the hydrological cycle, have a higher level of attribution than other types of events. Based on observations and representations in cutting-edge climate models, a new understanding of ECEs has opened up new alternatives for analysing their impact on human and biological systems. Thanks to improved geographical resolution in climate projections and breakthroughs in analytical and dynamic downsampling, climate data is now available at appropriate timescales.We may be able to establish a mechanistic knowledge of how ECEs influence biochemical mechanisms, ecological functions, and adaptive potential using Earth System Models which simulate biogeochemical cycles and interacts with the ecosystem at high levels of uncertainty.
