The lake area to catchment area ratio at which a lake become sensitive varies with the magnitude of the precipitation change. Lake studies have the potential to contribute significantly to documenting and explaining Holocene climate changes across Europe. Continued improvements to the existing lake data...
To get higher resolution estimates of changes in climate, we used output from a regional climate model (RCM, MM5), which is nested in the Parallel Climate Model (PCM). We defined wet avalanches as likely to occur when average daily temperature exceeds 0 °C and investigated three scenarios:...
However, few studies have addressed the relationship between temperature and hourly precipitation. The climate over China plays an important role in the larger-scale Asian climate system. The East Asia monsoon, which dominates the climate in China, is largely regulated by the terrain characteristics ...
(~27%) are located in regions that will experience both high rates of climate change and land-use change by 2050. Substantial changes are expected to occur more often within PAs distributed across tropical moist and grassland biomes, which currently host diverse tetrapods and vascular plants, ...
There exist different types of energy consumption that occur in our day-to-day life by us, sometimes knowingly and many times unknowingly. They are as follows:- 1. Chemical Energy Consumption These types of energies are contained within bonds between molecules. The sources of such energy are co...
Shell dissolution is more likely to occur in areas with higher precipitation. We observed strong soil leaching in the lower part of paleosol S7 of the Luochuan section in the eastern CLP, likely resulting in changes in the composition and abundance of snail assemblages within this interval. ...
Besides the changes in mean climate, the extreme climate is also of great importance to the society, which is more sensitive to global warming (Knutti et al., 2016). For example, the hot temperature extremes in the Mediterranean will increase about 3 °C and the cold temperature extremes in...
2016), which would result in a global deposition flux of approximately 560 Mg/year, although this needs further observational confirmation. In addition, further plant depositions occur via woody tissues, including by tree blowdown (Mitchell et al. 2012). Given that Hg contained in woody biomass...
Modelling changes in glacier mass balance that may occur as a result of climate changes Projections of changes in glacier mass balance caused by climate changes involve modelling present mass balance in terms of climate and then perturbing the... RJ Braithwaite,Y Zhang - 《Geografiska Annaler》 ...
Earth’s ecosystems are exposed to numerous environmental change factors30, such as climate change, eutrophication, overgrazing and pesticide use, all of which can have profound consequences for resident biota and invaders. According to the stress-gradient hypothesis, species interactions could switch fro...
