Climate warming and extreme hydrological events are threatening the sustainability of wetlands across the globe. However, whether climate warming will amplify or diminish the impact of extreme flooding on wetland ecosystems is unknown. Here, we show that climate warming significantly reduced wetland resistance and resilience to a severe flooding event via a 6-year warming experiment. We first found that warming rapidly altered plant community structure by increasing the dominance of low-canop…

Matched topics: drought
Climate change is predicted to increase the frequency and intensity of extreme events including droughts and large precipitation events or “deluges.” While many studies have focused on the ecological impacts of individual events (e.g., a heat wave), there is growing recognition that when extreme events co-occur as compound extremes, (e.g., a heatwave during a drought), the additive effects on ecosystems are often greater than either extreme alone. In this study, we assessed a unique type of e…

Water shortage caused by long-term drought is one of the most serious abiotic stress factors in maize. Different drought conditions lead to differences in growth, development, and metabolism of maize. In previous studies, proteomics and genomics methods have been widely used to explain the response mechanism of maize to long-term drought, but there are only a few articles related to metabolomics. In this study, we used transcriptome and metabolomics analysis to characterize the differential e…

Abstract. The Baltic Sea, located in northern Europe, is a semi-enclosed, shallow and tideless sea with seasonal sea-ice cover in its northern sub-basins. Its long water residence time contributes to oxygen depletion in the bottom water of its southern sub-basins. In this study, recently performed scenario simulations for the Baltic Sea including marine biogeochemistry were analysed and compared with earlier published projections. Specifically, dynamical downscaling using a regionally coupled…

Abstract Moutain snow cover is highly variable both spatially and temporally and has a tremendous impact on ecosystems and human activities. Numerical models provide continuous estimates of the variability of snow cover properties in time and space. However, they suffer from large uncertainties, for instance originating from errors in the meteorological inputs. Here, we show that the snow depth variability at 250 m spatial resolution can be well simulated by assimilating snow depth maps from …

In actual engineering fields, the bearing capacity of a rock is closely related to the pore water pressure in the rock. Studies have shown that the pore water in the rock has a great relationship with the change in runoff. Thus, it has crucial meaning to accurately evaluate and quantitate the property of the rainfall–runoff, and many traditional classic models are proposed to study the characteristic of rainfall–runoff. While considering the high uncertainty and randomness of the rainfall–run…

Matched topics: hydrology
Abstract Lake water storage changes are important factors that influence the climate, hydrological cycle, and environments. However, long‐term estimation of global lake storage changes is challenging because historical in‐situ hydrological observations worldwide are rarely available. Benefiting from the laser altimeter ICESat and ICESat‐2, we comprehensively assessed water level and volume changes in global natural lakes larger than 10 km 2 during 2003–2020. The 6,567 lakes observable by ICES…
The Potential of Biochar to Enhance the Water Retention Properties of Sandy Agricultural Soils
Authors: Elizaphan Otieno Ndede, Soboda Kurebito, Olusegun Idowu, Takeo Tokunari, Keiji Jindo
Journal: Agronomy · DOI: 10.3390/agronomy12020311 · Citations: 72
Matched topics: hydrology
The impact of climate change has become increasingly severe in drylands, resulting in heat stress and water deficiency and, consequently, reducing agricultural production. Biochar plays an important role in improving soil fertility. The properties of sandy soils where water deficiency occurs with a greater frequency need to be enhanced by biochar amendments to increase the water retention capacity (WRC). Few studies have reported the effects of biochar on the readily available water (RAW) of …

Predictive performance of ensemble hydroclimatic forecasts: Verification metrics, diagnostic plots and forecast attributes
Authors: Zeqing Huang, Tongtiegang Zhao
Journal: Wiley Interdisciplinary Reviews Water · DOI: 10.1002/wat2.1580 · Citations: 61
Matched topics: hydrology, streamflow
Abstract Predictive performance is one of the most important issues for practical applications of ensemble hydroclimatic forecasts. While different forecasting studies tend to use different combinations of verification metrics and diagnostic plots, this paper presents a literature survey of popular verification metrics, diagnostic plots and their corresponding forecast attributes. Twenty metrics to quantify predictive performance of ensemble, deterministic and categorical forecasts are detail…
Dynamic impacts of changes in river structure and connectivity on water quality under urbanization in the Yangtze River Delta plain
Authors: Zhihui Yu, Qiang Wang, Youpeng Xu, Miao Lu, Zhixin Lin, Bin Gao
Journal: Ecological Indicators · DOI: 10.1016/j.ecolind.2022.108582 · Citations: 59
Matched topics: river
The deterioration of river water quality in urbanized areas is getting more serious, and affects the regional ecology and development of social economy; however, its mechanisms of dynamic variation is still an open question. In this study, we detected the dynamics of water quality and its driven mechanisms in the Yangtze River Delta plain, one of the most developed areas in China. The results showed that the spatial agglomerations of dissolved oxygen (DO), ammonia nitrogen (NH3-N), and total …
