+                 issues have grown in recent years. The news media plays an important role in disseminating information
+                 about climate change and its consequences to the wider public and thus can influence public climate
+                 concern. Here, we investigate how extreme weather affects issue attention to climate change in the
+                 European online news media and how extreme weather and news coverage jointly shape changes in climate
+                 change concern. For the analysis, we combine 12 harmonized Eurobarometer survey waves, measuring public
+                 concerns about climate issues, with meteorological data and indices of environmental news coverage
+                 based on publications from 2481 media outlets in 200 regions of 22 European countries. Using fixed
+                 effects panel models, we estimate effects of temperature anomalies on climate news and climate concern
+                 and explore the role of the news media in explaining changes in concerns in response to temperature
+                 anomalies. The results indicate that unusually high temperatures exhibit a robust positive effect on
+                 media attention, especially when they overlap with other events that draw attention to the climate
+                 topic, such as major climate change conferences. We furthermore find evidence that the climate news in
+                 national outlets increases public concern about climate change and show that reporting by such outlets
+                 is likely to partly explain the effects of temperature anomalies on concerns. We do not find any

+                 suggest that the national news media partly mediates the effects of extreme weather on public climate

+                 given the difficulty of assessing firms’ true environmental profiles, especially when relying on
+                 traditional data sources that generally overlook communication strategies and mass perceptions. Using
