Abstract. Land-cover change has been identified as an important cause or driving force of global climate change and is a significant research topic. Over the past few decades, global land-cover mapping has progressed; however, long-time-series global land-cover-change monitoring data are still sparse, especially those at 30 m resolution. In this study, we describe GLC_FCS30D, a novel global 30 m land-cover dynamics monitoring dataset containing 35 land-cover subcategories and covering the per…

We consider the effects of climate change on seasonally migrant populations that herd livestock—i.e., transhumant pastoralists—in Africa. Traditionally, transhumant pastoralists benefit from a cooperative relationship with sedentary agriculturalists whereby arable land is used for crop farming in the wet season and animal grazing in the dry season. Rainfall scarcity can disrupt this arrangement by inducing pastoral groups to migrate to agricultural lands before the harvest, causing conflict t…

The observed rate of global warming since the 1970s has been proposed as a strong constraint on equilibrium climate sensitivity (ECS) and transient climate response (TCR)-key metrics of the global climate response to greenhouse-gas forcing. Using CMIP5/6 models, we show that the inter-model relationship between warming and these climate sensitivity metrics (the basis for the constraint) arises from a similarity in transient and equilibrium warming patterns within the models, producing an effe…

With the development of deep learning technology, researchers are increasingly paying attention to how to efficiently salvage surface garbage. Since the 1980s, the development of plastic products and economic growth has led to the accumulation of a large amount of garbage in rivers. Due to the large amount of garbage and the high risk of surface operations, the efficiency of manual garbage retrieval will be greatly reduced. Among existing methods, using YOLO algorithm to detect target objects…

Mulching is a widely adopted agronomic practice, often used as a water-saving strategy due to its effectiveness in reducing soil evaporation. However, effects vary depending on the materials used and the extent of mulch soil coverage. Consequently, the impacts of mulching may differ considerably across production systems, preventing the establishment of reliable guidelines for irrigation water management. The objective of this study is to comprehensively review existing literature that compar…

Janus Membranes with Asymmetric Superwettability for High-Performance and Long-Term On-Demand Oil/Water Emulsion Separation
Authors: Zhecun Wang, Yubing Shao, Tianyi Wang, Jinghan Zhang, Zhanyuan Cui, Jing Guo et al.
Journal: ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces · DOI: 10.1021/acsami.4c00007 · Citations: 50
Matched topics: surface water
Current single-function superwettable materials are typically designed for either oil removal or water removal and are constrained by oil density, limiting their widespread applications. Janus membranes with opposite wettability on their two surfaces have recently emerged and present attractive opportunities for on-demand oil/water emulsion separation. Here, a combination strategy is introduced to prepare a Janus membrane with asymmetric superwettability for switchable oil/water emulsion sepa…
Machine learning models for gully erosion susceptibility assessment in the Tensift catchment, Haouz Plain, Morocco for sustainable development

Gully erosion is a widespread environmental danger, threatening global socio-economic stability and sustainable development. This study comprehensively applied seven machine learning (ML) models including SVM, KNN, RF, XGBoost, ANN, DT, and LR, and evaluated gully erosion susceptibility in the Tensift catchment and predict it within the Haouz plain, Morocco. To ensure the reliability of the findings, the study employed a robust combination of gully erosion inventory, sentinel images, and Digi…

A complete methodology to assess hydraulic risk in small ungauged catchments based on HEC-RAS 2D Rain-On-Grid simulations
Authors: Wafae Ennouini, Andrea Fenocchi, Gabriella Petaccia, Elisabetta Persi, Stefano Sibilla
Journal: Natural Hazards · DOI: 10.1007/s11069-024-06515-2 · Citations: 31
Matched topics: hydrology, hydrologic model, runoff
Abstract This paper explores the use of the rain-on-grid (or direct rainfall) method for flood risk assessment at a basin scale. The method is particularly useful for rural catchments with small vertical variations and complex interactions with man-made obstacles and structures, which may be oversimplified by traditional hydrologically based estimations. The use of a hydrodynamic model solving mass and momentum conservation equations allows the simulation of runoff over the watershed at a bas…
Influence of snowmelt on increasing Arctic river discharge: numerical evaluation
Authors: Hotaek Park, Youngwook Kim, Kazuyoshi Suzuki, Tetsuya Hiyama
Journal: Progress in Earth and Planetary Science · DOI: 10.1186/s40645-024-00617-y · Citations: 15
Matched topics: hydrology, hydrologic model, river, runoff, streamflow, land surface model
Abstract Snow is the most important component of the Arctic climatic and hydrological system and is directly vulnerable to climate change. In recent decades, observations have indicated significant decreases in the Arctic snow cover and snowfall rate, whereas water discharge from circumpolar Arctic river basins into the Arctic Ocean has increased. To evaluate the contribution, not well quantified, of snow to the river discharge increase, we conducted sensitivity simulations with surface air t…
Graphene-based nanomaterials for the removal of emerging contaminants of concern from water and their potential adaptation for point-of-use applications
Authors: Samson Oluwafemi Abioye, Yalda Majooni, Mahsa Moayedi, Hadi Rezvani, Mihir Kapadia, Nariman Yousefi
Journal: Chemosphere · DOI: 10.1016/j.chemosphere.2024.141728 · Citations: 33
Matched topics: surface water
Considering the plethora of work on the exceptional environmental performance of 2D nanomaterials, there is still a missing link in addressing their practical application in point-of-use (POU) water treatment. By reviewing the exceptional environmental performance of 2D nanomaterials with specific emphasis on graphene and its derivatives, this review aims at inspiring further discussions and research in graphene-based POU water treatment with particular focus on the removal of emerging contam…
