  • 构建可审计的LLM代理,将气象数据中的复合事件匹配真实灾害证据
  • 408个候选事件中仅34.3%有双灾情证据,1.5%明确关联干旱到暴雨
  • 为气候、应急和政策研究提供可追溯的复合事件证据库

复合干旱至极端降水(CDEP)事件在气候科学中被视为极端影响的重要驱动因素,但其是否进入实际早期预警和事后记录仍不明。本文提出CDEP Agent,一种可审计的LLM代理框架,通过将ERA5再分析数据中2021–2025年加州识别出的408个候选事件,与美国干旱监测、NOAA风暴事件及公共网页等多源异构数据进行跨尺度、多时序、异常规的匹配验证。评估涵盖前期干旱、极端降雨、局部影响、灾情归因及干旱到降雨的明确链接五维度。结果表明,仅34.3%的候选事件在两个灾情成分上获得证实,仅有1.5%被明确关联至前期干旱,说明大多数气象检测到的CDEP事件既无预警也无记录。该框架为气候科学家提供检验物理事件定义与实际记录之间差距的方法,也为社会科学家、经济学家及应急机构提供当前预警系统难以捕捉的、具有溯源性的复合事件证据基础。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Compound drought-to-extreme-precipitation (CDEP) events are recognized in climate science as a growing driver of extreme impact, but whether this recognition carries over into real-world early warning and post-event documentation is unknown, so a meteorologically real CDEP event may pass with neither advance warning nor any later record. Here we present CDEP Agent, an auditable LLM-agent framework that tests this mismatch directly by linking CDEP candidates detected from meteorological reanalysis to real-world hazard and impact evidence across sources with different spatial scales, temporal resolutions, and reporting conventions. Using California as a case study, we identify 408 candidate CDEP events from ERA5 observations during 2021-2025 and evaluate each against the U.S. Drought Monitor, NOAA Storm Events, and public webpages along five dimensions: antecedent drought, extreme rainfall, local impact, hazard-impact attribution, and explicit drought-to-rainfall linkage. Only 34.3% of candidates are corroborated on both hazard components, and just 1.5% are ever explicitly linked to their antecedent drought, indicating that most meteorologically detected CDEP events go undocumented and their compound nature almost never enters the record at all. Our framework gives climate scientists a way to test physical event definitions against what actually gets documented, and gives social scientists, economists, and disaster-response agencies a provenance-linked evidence base for compound events that current warning and reporting systems largely fail to capture.
