“…(), HW is defined as the time when the minimum and/or maximum temperatures are higher than the 90th percentile for at least 3 days. Recent studies have applied the same method to two extreme temperatures in order to identify and classify CWs and HWs (Barnett et al ., ; Keevallik and Vint, ; Lhotka and Kyselý, ; Oleson et al ., ; Spinoni et al ., ; Unkašević and Tošić, ; Basarin et al ., ; Ceccherini et al ., ; Mahdi and Dhekale, ; Plavcová and Kyselý, ; Capozzi and Budillon, ; Pereira et al ., ; Zhang et al ., ; Song et al ., ). In other words, the threshold temperature that characterizes a HW is in the 90th percentile, and that of a CW is in the 10th percentile.…”
