Reduced evaporation due to dry soils can affect the land surface energy balance, with implications for local and downwind precipitation. When evaporation is constrained by soil moisture, the atmospheric supply of water is depleted, and this deficit may propagate in time and space. This mechanism could theoretically result in the self-propagation of droughts, but the extent to which this process occurs is unknown. Here we isolate the influence of soil moisture drought on downwind precipitation…

Abstract. In the Baltic Sea, salinity and its large variability, both horizontal and vertical, are key physical factors in determining the overall stratification conditions. In addition to that, salinity and its changes also have large effects on various ecosystem processes. Several factors determine the observed two-layer vertical structure of salinity. Due to the excess of river runoff to the sea, there is a continuous outflow of water masses in the surface layer with a compensating inflow …

in snow and meltwater, respectively. Comparing the levels of tire and PMB particles to the total mass of particles, showed that tire and PMB-particles combined only contribute to 5.7% (meltwater) and 5.2% (mass load) of the total mass concentration of particles. The large variation between sites in the study was investigated using redundancy analysis of the possible explanatory variables. Contradictory to previous road studies, speed limit was found to be one of the most important variables e…

Abstract A sound understanding of the community changes over time and its driving forces is at the centre of biodiversity conservation and ecology research. In this study, we examined: (i) the relative roles of turnover and nestedness components to trait‐ and taxonomy‐based temporal beta diversity of riverine diatoms; (ii) whether trait‐based temporal beta diversity provides complementary information to taxonomy‐based temporal beta diversity; (iii) the relative roles of hydrology (e.g. discha…
Black carbon and organic carbon dataset over the Third Pole

Abstract. The Tibetan Plateau and its surroundings, also known as the Third Pole, play an important role in the global and regional climate and hydrological cycle. Carbonaceous aerosols (CAs), including black carbon (BC) and organic carbon (OC), can directly or indirectly absorb and scatter solar radiation and change the energy balance on the Earth. CAs, along with the other atmospheric pollutants (e.g., mercury), can be frequently transported over long distances into the inland Tibetan Plate…
The potential of India’s net-zero carbon emissions: Analyzing the effect of clean energy, coal, urbanization, and trade openness
Authors: Binlin Li, Nils Haneklaus
Journal: Energy Reports · DOI: 10.1016/j.egyr.2022.01.241 · Citations: 63
Matched topics: hydropower
India is facing challenges on its pursuit to carbon neutrality and energy security. This paper analyzes the long- and short-run dynamics of clean energy, coal consumption, trade openness, and urbanization on CO2 emissions in India. The findings suggest that: (1) the Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC) hypothesis can be verified for India in the time period from 1990 to 2020, and the long-run elasticities for per capita income on CO2 emissions have strengthened compared to previous studies. (2) …

Ubiquitous karst hydrological control on speleothem oxygen isotope variability in a global study
Authors: Pauline C. Treble, Andy Baker, Nerilie J. Abram, John Hellström, Jagoda Crawford, Michael K. Gagan et al.

Matched topics: hydrology, earth system model
Abstract Speleothem oxygen isotopic (δ 18 O) records are used to reconstruct past hydroclimate yet records from the same cave do not always replicate. We use a global database of speleothem δ 18 O to quantify the replicability of records to show that disagreement is common worldwide, occurs across timescales and is unrelated to climate, depth or lithology. Our global analysis demonstrates that within-cave differences in mean speleothem δ 18 O values are consistent with those of dripwater, sup…
