Our analysis showed a significant increase (up to 3 days/decade) in the Canadian Arctic and southern regions of British Columbia and an insignificant decrease in HTLP frequency in the Prairies of Saskatchewan and Manitoba during 1979–2018. We examined ten large-scale climate patterns influencing precipitation and temperature in Canada. Among these, four climate indices (the East Pacific-North Pacific Pattern, North Atlantic Oscillation, Oceanic Niño Index, and East Atlantic Pattern) were noted as significant influencers of HTLP frequency, ranked in descending order of influence. Our research holds significance in explaining the spatial dynamics of HTLP days and the role of large-scale climate patterns therein, providing valuable insights for future research on heatwaves and droughts, mitigation efforts, and policy changes tailored to vulnerable regions.en1944-8007Geophysical research letters202520concurrent extremeshigh temperature eventslarge-scale climate patternslow precipitation eventsregional climate driversTechnology::600: TechnologyPrevailing Climate Patterns for Concurrent High Temperature and Low Precipitation Days in CanadaJournal Article10.1029/2025GL118662Journal Article
