Climate Change and Terrestrial Water Storage

This week features 24 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.

Matched topics: reservoir

Hydrogen is a promising energy carrier for a low-carbon future energy system, as it can be stored on a megaton scale (equivalent to TWh of energy) in subsurface reservoirs. However, safe and efficient underground hydrogen storage requires a thorough understanding of the geomechanics of the host rock under fluid pressure fluctuations. In this context, we summarize the current state of knowledge regarding geomechanics relevant to carbon dioxide and natural gas storage in salt caverns and deplet…

Matched topics: land surface model, earth system model

Nitrogen (N) is an important nutrient for crop growth. However, the overuse of N fertilizers has led to a series of devastating global environmental issues. Recent studies show that multiple datasets have been created for agricultural N fertilizer application with varied temporal or spatial resolutions, nevertheless, how to synchronize and use these datasets becomes problematic due to the inconsistent temporal coverages, spatial resolutions, and crop-specific allocations. Here we reconstructe…

was 77% higher than model predictions. Stomatal decoupling was found for most broadleaf evergreen and broadleaf deciduous species at the urban site, including some wilted trees with limited water access. Decoupling may simply be a passive consequence of the physical effects of high temperature on plant leaves through increased cuticular conductance of water vapor, or stomatal decoupling may be an adaptive response that is actively regulated by stomatal opening under high temperatures. This te…

Ice-nucleating particles (INPs) are rare atmospheric aerosols that initiate primary ice formation, but accurately simulating their concentrations and variability in large-scale climate models remains a challenge. Doing so requires both simulating major particle sources and parameterizing their ice nucleation (IN) efficiency. Validating and improving model predictions of INP concentrations requires measuring their concentrations delineated by particle type. We present a method to speciate INP …

Transitioning to an equitable electricity sector requires a deep understanding of a warming climate’s impacts on vulnerable populations. A vital climate adaptation measure is deploying air-conditioning (AC), but AC use can increase household energy costs. We evaluate how a warming climate will affect regional energy equity by tying temperature projections with household temperature response functions derived from smart-meter electricity data in Phoenix, Arizona. We simulate future consumption…

Abstract In February 2023, Antarctic sea ice set a record minimum; there have now been three record-breaking low sea ice summers in seven years. Following the summer minimum, circumpolar Antarctic sea ice coverage remained exceptionally low during the autumn and winter advance, leading to the largest negative areal extent anomalies observed over the satellite era. Here, we show the confluence of Southern Ocean subsurface warming and record minima and suggest that ocean warming has played a ro…

Matched topics: river

Globally, vegetation has been changing dramatically. The vegetation–water dynamic is key to understanding ecosystem structure and functioning in water-limited ecosystems. Continual satellite monitoring has detected global vegetation greening. However, a greenness increase does not mean that ecosystem functions increase. The intricate interplays resulting from the relationships between vegetation and precipitation must be more adequately comprehended. In this study, satellite data, for example…


Hydrodynamic tearing of bacteria on nanotips for sustainable water disinfection

Authors: Lu Peng, Haojie Zhu, Haobin Wang, Zhenbin Guo, Qian‐Yuan Wu, Cheng Yang et al.

Matched topics: surface water

nanowires grown on a copper foam substrate. We show that mild water flow (e.g. driven from a storage tank) can efficiently tear up bacteria through a high dispersion force between the nanotip surface and the cell envelope. Bacterial cell rupture is due to tearing of the cell envelope rather than collisions. This mechanism produces rapid inactivation of bacteria in water, and achieved complete disinfection in a 30-day field test. Our approach exploits fluidic energy and does not require additi…

Enhancing daily streamflow simulation using the coupled SWAT-BiLSTM approach for climate change impact assessment in Hai-River Basin

Authors: Xianqi Zhang, Yu Qi, Fang Liu, Haiyang Li, Shifeng Sun

Journal: Scientific Reports · DOI: 10.1038/s41598-023-42512-4 · Citations: 33

Matched topics: hydrology, hydrologic model, river, streamflow, climate change

Abstract Against the backdrop of accelerated global climate change and urbanization, the frequency and severity of flood disasters have been increasing. In recent years, influenced by climate change, the Hai-River Basin (HRB) has experienced multiple large-scale flood disasters. During the widespread extraordinary flood event from July 28th to August 1st, 2023, eight rivers witnessed their largest floods on record. These events caused significant damage and impact on economic and social devel…

Land Use and Land Cover Change Detection Using the Random Forest Approach: The Case of The Upper Blue Nile River Basin, Ethiopia

Authors: Birhan Getachew Tikuye, Miloš Rusnák, B. R. Manjunatha, Jithin Jose

Journal: Global Challenges · DOI: 10.1002/gch2.202300155 · Citations: 45

Matched topics: hydrology, river

Monitoring land use change dynamics is critical for tackling food security, climate change, and biodiversity loss on a global scale. This study is designed to classify land use and land cover in the upper Blue Nile River Basin (BNRB) using a random forest (RF) algorithm. The Landsat images for Landsat 45, Landsat 7, and Landsat 8 are used for classification purposes. The study area is classified into seven land use/land cover classes: cultivated lands, bare lands, built-ups, forests, grazing …


Remote sensing inversion of water quality parameters in the Yellow River Delta

Authors: Xin Cao, Jing Zhang, Haobin Meng, Yuequn Lai, Mofan Xu

Journal: Ecological Indicators · DOI: 10.1016/j.ecolind.2023.110914 · Citations: 49

Matched topics: river

In recent years, with the rapid socio-economic development of the Yellow River Delta (YRD), the pressure on the supply of water resources has continued to rise. The development of oil-based industries has also led to a series of ecological and environmental problems, such as wetland degradation and water quality deterioration. As an increasing number of rivers are getting polluted, resulting in the deterioration of their water quality, monitoring, managing, and protecting water resources in t…

Underground hydrogen storage: Integrated surface facilities and fluid flow modelling for depleted gas reservoirs

Authors: Alireza Salmachi, Ahmad Seyfaee, Rohan Jeffry Robert, Tahereh Hosseini, Graham J. Nathan, Peter J. Ashman et al.

Journal: International Journal of Hydrogen Energy · DOI: 10.1016/j.ijhydene.2023.08.335 · Citations: 47

Matched topics: reservoir

We report a new techno-economic model to assess performance and capital costs for large-scale underground hydrogen storage in depleted gas reservoirs. A simulation toolbox is developed to model surface facilities and to simulate the hydrogen flow in geological formations in an integrated fashion. Integrated modelling revealed the following key insights: 1) A buffer system is highly desirable to absorb inherent variability in upstream hydrogen production; 2) hydrogen mixing with existing gases…


Ocean-forcing of cool season precipitation drives ongoing and future decadal drought in southwestern North America

Authors: Richard Seager, Mingfang Ting, Patrick Alexander, Haibo Liu, Jennifer Nakamura, Cuihua Li et al.

Journal: npj Climate and Atmospheric Science · DOI: 10.1038/s41612-023-00461-9 · Citations: 34

Matched topics: streamflow, drought, earth system model

Abstract The US Southwest is in a drought crisis that has been developing over the past two decades, contributing to marked increases in burned forest areas and unprecedented efforts to reduce water consumption. Climate change has contributed to this ongoing decadal drought via warming that has increased evaporative demand and reduced snowpack and streamflows. However, on the supply side, precipitation has been low during the 21st century. Here, using simulations with an atmosphere model forc…
