The 2022 and 2023 western Mediterranean summer temperatures exceeded millennial natural variability, reaching unprecedented anomalies of +3.6 °C and +2.9 °C respectively. We show that anthropogenic climate change may turn extreme heatwaves from a rarity of 1 in 10,000 years into events occurring every 4–75 years, depending on future scenarios. This shift underscores the urgency of implementing adaptive strategies as extreme climate events manifest sooner and more intensely than expected.

. Here we show that constraining model projections with observations using a newly proposed emergent constraint (EC) reduces the uncertainty in predictions of a core drought indicator, the longest annual dry spell (LAD), by 10-26% globally. Our EC-corrected projections reveal that the increase in LAD will be 42-44% greater, on average, than ‘mid-range’ or ‘high-end’ future forcing scenarios currently indicate. These results imply that by the end of this century, the global mean land-only LAD …

Mokgam River watershed, South Korea In this study, the uncertainty contribution of three sources and their interaction effects on future climate and runoff projections were quantified. General circulation models (GCMs), shared socioeconomic pathways (SSPs), and bias correction (BC) methods were considered as the three sources. 20 GCMs under four SSPs (SSP1–2.6, SSP2–4.5, SSP3–7.0, and SSP5–8.5) were used to project the future climate of the study area. Seven BC methods were used to adjust the…

Matched topics: hydrology, hydrologic model, runoff, streamflow, hydropower
ABSTRACT Accurate discharge predictions are essential for effective water resource management, including irrigation, drinking water supply, hydropower, reservoir management, environmental flow, and flood assessment. Satellite precipitation data, such as GPM-IMERG, offers a viable solution for estimating river discharge, especially in ungauged or sparsely gauged watersheds. This study evaluates the use of GPM-IMERG data in the HEC-HMS hydrological model to predict discharge in the Mayang Water…

Quantifying Sahel Runoff Sensitivity to Climate Variability, Soil Moisture and Vegetation Changes Using Analytical Methods
Authors: Elias Nkiaka, Robert G. Bryant, Moctar Dembélé
Journal: Earth Systems and Environment · DOI: 10.1007/s41748-024-00464-3 · Citations: 9
Matched topics: hydrology, runoff, streamflow, land surface model
Abstract Whilst substantial efforts have been deployed to understand the “Sahel hydrological paradox”, most of the studies focused on small experimental watersheds around the central and western Sahel. To our knowledge, there is no study on this issue covering all the watersheds located within the Sahelian belt. The absence of relevant studies may be attributed to a sparsity of in situ data leading to a dearth of knowledge on the Sahel hydrology. To fill this knowledge gap, the present study …
