Climate Change and Terrestrial Water Storage
This week features 14 papers examining the intersection of climate change and terrestrial water dynamics. Studies investigate water storage changes, drought mechanisms and projections, vegetation-water interactions, and Earth system model uncertainties. Key contributions address large-scale water storage trends, land-atmosphere coupling effects on drought onset, and methods for characterizing future drought under climate change scenarios.

Floating photovoltaics (FPV) refers to photovoltaic power plants anchored on water bodies with modules mounted on floats. FPV represents a relatively new technology in Europe and is currently showing a rapid growth in deployment. However, effects on thermal characteristics of lakes are largely unknown, yet these are crucial for licensing and approval of such plants. Here, we quantify FPV impacts on lake water temperature, energy budget and thermal stratification of a lake through measurements…

Abstract The increased precipitation in the Asian water tower has prompted the abrupt lake expansion and increased runoff, significantly reshaping the water resource redistribution in the Inner Tibetan Plateau (ITP). However, the dynamic attribution behind this decadal increment remains unclear. Here, analysis of observations, large ensemble simulations, and pacemaker experiments indicates that this decadal increase was mainly attributed to the synergistic effects of the external forcing (ant…

A maximum swelling capacity of 2000% was achieved for cellulose hydrogel with optimum composition. The soil moisture contents in the presence of optimized cellulose hydrogels were determined using the digital moisture meter. Maximum soil moisture o…

Abstract Henan Province is the birthplace of Chinese civilization and one of the earliest human settlements, which means that the area has an important national cultural heritage. Traditional villages are an important facet of this cultural heritage, and studying their spatiotemporal characteristics in different periods has important theoretical and practical significance for the sustainable development and protection of cultural heritage in the region. This paper takes the traditional villag…

Abstract. The CryoGrid community model is a flexible toolbox for simulating the ground thermal regime and the ice–water balance for permafrost and glaciers, extending a well-established suite of permafrost models (CryoGrid 1, 2, and 3). The CryoGrid community model can accommodate a wide variety of application scenarios, which is achieved by fully modular structures through object-oriented programming. Different model components, characterized by their process representations and parameteriza…
Subseasonal processes of triple extreme heatwaves over the Yangtze River Valley in 2022

Historical extreme heatwaves struck the Yangtze River Valley (YRV) in the boreal summer of 2022, severely impacting agricultural production, electricity supply, and resident health in China. This study shows that extreme heatwaves recurred over the YRV with distinct subseasonal processes. In early summer, from 14 June to 18 July, two extreme heatwaves were embedded in a mid-latitude 10–25-day intraseasonal oscillation (ISO), and hot-and-wet anomalies persisted over the YRV. A self-sustaining …

Modelling urban stormwater management changes using SWMM and convection-permitting climate simulations in cold areas
Authors: Ottar Tamm, Teemu Kokkonen, Lassi Warsta, Maria Dubovik, Harri Koivusalo
Journal: Journal of Hydrology · DOI: 10.1016/j.jhydrol.2023.129656 · Citations: 37
Matched topics: hydrologic model, runoff, water management
Urbanization coupled with climate change is expected to put pressure on the urban stormwater network. To predict and mitigate the effects of these trends, accurate modeling of urban stormwater changes is required at scales and resolutions meaningful to stormwater management. Although numerous studies have analyzed the effect of climate change on urban flooding risk using the event-based approach, none have incorporated the continuous modelling approach to investigate the whole spectrum of cha…
A synthesis of hydroclimatic, ecological, and socioeconomic data for transdisciplinary research in the Mekong

The Mekong River basin (MRB) is a transboundary basin that supports livelihoods of over 70 million inhabitants and diverse terrestrial-aquatic ecosystems. This critical lifeline for people and ecosystems is under transformation due to climatic stressors and human activities (e.g., land use change and dam construction). Thus, there is an urgent need to better understand the changing hydrological and ecological systems in the MRB and develop improved adaptation strategies. This, however, is ham…
