The Global Risks Report 20231 released by the World Economic Forum indicates that the failure of climate action will be the dominating global risk factor in the next decade. To address climate change, countries worldwide have actively participated in global climate governance by formulating and implem...
Climate change is a key concern, along with other environmental, biological, and technological risks encountered by different types of ecosystems globally. The impact of climate variability is evident in tropical regions, specifically in crop yields of rain-fed agroecosystems. To implement efficient adap...
a comprehensive, traceable and easily updatable synthetic table that maps 1360 paragraphs from 138 studies related to NETs into 66 summary statements (see Excel spreadsheet in ESM); a focused assessment of key evidence on the distinct role of NETs for limiting climate change to 1.5 °C and 2 ...

events. The recent occurrence of an infrequent event such as a hurricane or flood elevates perceptions of the risk of low probability events. This then translates into perceptions of overall climate change risk. And so, our perceptions of climate risk are being cleverly manipulated by propagandists...
Forests have become increasingly stressed by climate change, including in Romania over recent decades, but their response to climate dynamics has not yet been analysed in this country. This study aims to investigate, for the first time, recent ecological changes in forests across Romania, in relati...
Since the mid-1980s, there has been a debate about whether the frequency of frost, its severity, and thus the risk of frost damage in temperate climates will increase or decrease in the coming decades. Higher air temperatures due to climate change generally reduced the total number of frost ...
Land use and management affect soil hydrological processes, and the impacts can be further enhanced and accelerated due to climate change. In this study, we analyzed the possible long-term effects of different land use types on soil hydrological processes based on future climatic scenarios. Soil mo...
Therefore, climate-related risk assessment procedures are crucial for the management and sustainable development of coastal areas. The purpose of this paper is to review and analyze the literature on the assessment of both the long- and short- term effects of climate change on coastal Mediterranean...
climate change; air pollution; health-impacts; older adults; immigrants1. Introduction Climate change has been called “the defining issue” for public health in the 21st century [1], and air pollution the single most significant environmental health risk by the WHO [2]. Health impacts of ...
