| Özet |
| The Mediterranean basin, a recognized climate change hotspot, has experienced significant warming and intensification of recurrent heat conditions from 1950 to 2024. This study applies the h-index, a climate metric previously introduced in the literature, to comprehensively evaluate the magnitude and frequency of heat conditions specifically for the Mediterranean region. Using high-resolution ERA5-Land reanalysis data, six h-index variants (h-XT, h-NT, h-XAT, h-NAT, and newly introduced Humidex-based h-DHum, h-NHum) were calculated. Long-term averages reveal a pronounced spatial gradient, with the highest h-index values (e.g., h-XT up to 41.1, signifying at least 41.1 days with maximum temperatures ≥ 41.1 °C) in the southeastern Mediterranean (interior Middle East and North African deserts), reflecting frequent and intense hot conditions, while northern coastal areas show lower values.
