Yann Quilcaille
Yann Quilcaille is a prominent researcher at ETH Zurich who specializes in climate science. He is known for his work on the attribution of extreme weather events to climate change, particularly in relation to heatwaves. As the lead author of a groundbreaking study that established direct causal links between emissions from major fossil fuel and cement companies and the intensification of global heatwaves, Quilcaille's research plays a crucial role in understanding the responsibility of these 'carbon majors' in climate change. His findings emphasize the increasing likelihood and severity of heatwaves due to human-induced climate change.
