Changing climatic conditions and increase of extreme events induced by climate change have impacts on non- adapted infrastructures, leading to destruction, damage costs and indirect impacts. To adapt infrastructures to those new conditions, there is a need ...
This study describes and evaluates a new downscaling scheme that specifically addresses the need for hillslope-scale atmospheric-forcing time series for modelling the local impact of regional climate change projections on the land surface in complex terrai ...
Environmental extreme events can have devastating impacts on society when they interact with vulnerable human and natural systems. Such events can result from natural causes, like phenomena related to the El Ni~no-Southern Oscillation or decadal/multi-dec ...
As the climate warms, increasing heat-related health risks are expected, and can be exacerbated by the urban heat island (UHI) effect. UHIs can also offer protection against cold weather, but a clear quantification of their impacts on human health across d ...
Climate change and urbanization are two major challenges when planning for sustainable energy transition in cities. The common approach for energy demand estimation is using only typical meso-scale weather data in building energy models (BEMs), which under ...
We use the latest Coordinated Regional Dynamical Experiment regional climate models over South Asia at 0.22 degrees grid spacing (WAS-22) under two Representative Concentration Pathways scenarios (RCP 2.6 and RCP 8.5) to evaluate their performance against ...
Representing single or multi-layered mixed-phase clouds (MPCs) accurately in global climate models (GCMs) is critical for capturing climate sensitivity and Arctic amplification. Ice multiplication, or secondary ice production (SIP), can increase the ice cr ...
Many different emission pathways exist that are compatible with the Paris climate agreement, and many more are possible that miss that target. While some of the most complex Earth System Models have simulated a small selection of Shared Socioeconomic Pathw ...
Preliminary analyses of data collected during 2023 and analyses of archived data provided new insights into the sources of wood and sediment in this river corridor. These analyses have highlighted the primary supply processes accountable for these material ...
A tighter integration of modeling frameworks for climate and air quality is urgently needed to assess the impacts of clean air policies on future Arctic and global climate. We combined a new model emulator and comprehensive emissions scenarios for air poll ...
