Identifying urban pluvial flood-prone areas is necessary but the application of two-dimensional hydrodynamic models is limited to small areas. Data-driven models have been showing their ability to map flood susceptibility but their application in urban pluvial flooding is still rare. A flood inventory (4333 flooded locations) and 11 factors which potentially indicate an increased hazard for pluvial flooding were used to implement convolutional neural network (CNN), artificial neural network (…

Europe, with a particular focus on the Czech Republic, Poland, Spain, and Norway. Long-lasting droughts have become a semi-permanent feature of the European climate, especially over the last two decades. These prolonged droughts are usually driven by persistent sea surface temperature anomalies over the Pacific and Atlantic basins. By employing complex statistical methods (i.e., Canonical Correlation Analysis and Convergent Cross-Mapping) in this study we make a comprehensive assessment of th…

BACKGROUND: Cotton production is adversely effected by drought stress. It is exposed to drought stress at various critical growth stages grown under a water scarcity environment. Roots are the sensors of plants; they detect osmotic stress under drought stress and play an important role in plant drought tolerance mechanisms. The seedling stage is very sensitive to drought stress, and it needed to explore the methods and plant characteristics that contribute to drought tolerance in cotton. RESU…

These patterns emerge consistently in both managed and intact forests, corroborating the existence of common large-scale climate drivers. Reductions in resilience are statistically linked to abrupt declines in forest primary productivity, occurring in response to slow drifting towards a critical resilience threshold. Approximately 23% of intact undisturbed forests, corresponding to 3.32 Pg C of gross primary productivity…

, SSP585), indicating overestimates of 6.0-14.0% by the raw CMIP6 models. Accordingly, future temperature and total evaporation growth rates are also overestimated by 3.4-11.6% and -2.1-13.0%, respectively. The slower warming implies a lower snow cover loss rate by 10.5-40.2%. Overall, we find the projected increase in future water availability is overestimated by CMIP6 over Asia.

Evapotranspiration (ET) is sensitive to environmental factors. Accurate assessment of ET and its response to changing environments have…
Amplified warming from physiological responses to carbon dioxide reduces the potential of vegetation for climate change mitigation
Authors: Mingzhu He, Shilong Piao, Chris Huntingford, Hao Xu, Xuhui Wang, Ana Bastos et al.
Journal: Communications Earth & Environment · DOI: 10.1038/s43247-022-00489-4 · Citations: 45
Matched topics: climate change, earth system model
Abstract Global warming is increasing due to the ongoing rise in atmospheric greenhouse gases, and has the potential to threaten humans and ecosystems severely. Carbon dioxide, the primary rising greenhouse gas, also enhances vegetation carbon uptake, partially offsetting emissions. The vegetation physiological response to rising carbon dioxide, through partial stomatal closure and leaf area increase, can also amplify global warming, yet this is rarely accounted for in climate mitigation asse…

A probabilistic framework for quantifying the role of anthropogenic climate change in marine-terminating glacier retreats
Authors: John E. Christian, Alexander A. Robel, G. A. Catania
Journal: The cryosphere · DOI: 10.5194/tc-16-2725-2022 · Citations: 40
Matched topics: climate change
Abstract. Many marine-terminating outlet glaciers have retreated rapidly in recent decades, but these changes have not been formally attributed to anthropogenic climate change. A key challenge for such an attribution assessment is that if glacier termini are sufficiently perturbed from bathymetric highs, ice-dynamic feedbacks can cause rapid retreat even without further climate forcing. In the presence of internal climate variability, attribution thus depends on understanding whether (or how …

Knowledge of water movement from the hillslope critical zone is important for water management. However, the runoff process resulting from extreme rainfall events remains unclear due to rare field‐based natural monitoring data. We investigated rainwater infiltration and runoff generation processes in two plots with deep and relatively shallow soil thicknesses (66 vs. 35 cm depth on average, respectively) on karst hillslopes. Rainwater, soil water and lateral discharge runoff in the soil‐epika…

The twenty-first century is witnessing an explosion in global population, environmental changes, agricultural land disintegration, hunger, and geopolitical instabilities. It is difficult to manage these conditions or standardize improvement systems without thinking of the three main elements or subsystems that are necessary for any meaningful development-namely water (W), energy (E), and food (F). These key elements form what is globally agreed upon as the “WEF Nexus.” While considering them,…

Land cover mapping from satellite images has progressed from visual and statistical approaches to Random Forests (RFs) and, more recently, advanced image recognition techniques such as convolutional neural networks (CNNs). CNNs have a conceptual benefit over RFs in recognising spatial feature context, but potentially at the cost of reduced spatial detail. We tested the use of CNNs for improved land cover mapping based on Landsat data, compared with RFs, for a study area of approximately 500 k…

ABSTRACTThe open source 30 m Copernicus DEM (COP-DEM) has been used to derive the geo-morphometric and topo-hydrological characteristics of Betwa River Basin. Drainage network with 7th order stream and mostly dendritic pattern has been delineated using the Strahler’s method. The drainage density, stream frequency, form factor, length of overland flow and circulatory ratio of the basin were computed as 0.38 Km/Km2, 0.08 Km−2, 0.23, 1.31, and 0.20, respectively. These outcomes suggest less avai…

Matched topics: irrigation
The transformation and upgrading of traditional agriculture are required to address its shortcomings and deficiencies, which have resulted in environmental pollution or water problems. Precision agriculture emerged at the historic moment to solve the current problems. Field information collection, information management and decision-making, and execution systems are the three key links of precision fertilization and irrigation. The technical principle and application of field information acqu…
Ensemble hybrid machine learning methods for gully erosion susceptibility mapping: K-fold cross validation approach

Journal: Artificial Intelligence in Geosciences · DOI: 10.1016/j.aiig.2022.07.001 · Citations: 43
Matched topics: hydrologic model
Gully erosion is one of the important problems creating barrier to agricultural development. The present research used the radial basis function neural network (RBFnn) and its ensemble with random sub-space (RSS) and rotation forest (RTF) ensemble Meta classifiers for the spatial mapping of gully erosion susceptibility (GES) in Hinglo river basin. 120 gullies were marked and grouped into four-fold. A total of 23 factors including topographical, hydrological, lithological, and soil physio-chem…

Matched topics: land surface model
Rapid urbanization and land use transformation coupled with climate change impact are witnessed for development urban heat island worldwide and make it major environmental concerns for human health. National Capital Region (NCR) is one of the fast sprawling National Capital city of India. The aim of the present study is to explore the spatial changes in major biophysical parameters of city over last 20 years from 2000 to 2020 using satellite data. The spatial variation in the land surface tem…
Long term power prices and renewable energy market values in Norway – A probabilistic approach
Authors: Eirik Ogner Jåstad, Ian Michael Trotter, Torjus Folsland Bolkesjø
Journal: Energy Economics · DOI: 10.1016/j.eneco.2022.106182 · Citations: 39
Matched topics: hydropower
The transition to renewable energy will require large investments in renewable power generation capacity, made under large risks regarding future revenues. This study presents an analysis of different risk factors for future power prices and renewable energy market values in Norway, a region dominated by renewable power. We use a combination of global sensitivity analysis and Monte Carlo simulations to estimate the influence of the different parameters, including electricity demand, political…
