- This is a case study that explores whether the anomalous weather conditions in Europe - with high temperatures and low precipitation and wind speed - could be associated with extremely low values in sea ice concentration observed in the Arctic a few months earlier. The APPLICATE project aims to improve our understanding of the linkages between Arctic sea ice changes and the mid-latitude climate for the benefit of policy makers, businesses and society. Confirming the link between the extremely low sea ice concentrations in 2018 and the subsequent weather conditions over Europe would open an opportunity for short-term and long term planning of European energy systems if similar events become more frequent in the future.
