Improving our fundamental understanding of the role of aerosol-cloud interactions in the climate system
The effect of an increase in atmospheric aerosol concentrations on the distribution and radiative properties of Earth's clouds is the most uncertain component of the overall global radiative forcing from preindustrial time. General circulation models (GCMs ...
National Academy of Sciences2016Climate-driven endemic cholera is modulated by human mobility in a megacity
Andrea Rinaldo, Francisco Javier Perez Saez
Although a differential sensitivity of cholera dynamics to climate variability has been reported in the spatially heterogeneous megacity of Dhaka, Bangladesh, the specific patterns of spread of the resulting risk within the city remain unclear. We build on ...
Elsevier2016A statistical method for comparing different retrofitting measures of buildings and evaluating their robustness against climate change
Evaluating the usefulness and the reliability of retrofitted buildings for future climate can be a challenging task, while different scenarios and uncertainties exist both for retrofitting buildings and future climate. This paper presents a method to asses ...
Elsevier2015A statistical method for assessing retrofitting measures of buildings and ranking their robustness against climate change
Evaluating the usefulness and the reliability of retrofitted buildings for future climate can be a challenging task, while different scenarios and uncertainties exist both for retrofitting buildings and future climate. This paper presents a method to asses ...
Elsevier2015The economic impact of climate driven changes in water availability in Switzerland
Marc Vielle, Camille Gonseth, Anne-Kathrin Faust
The broad objective of this study is to estimate the economic impact of changes in water availability due to climate change in Switzerland with a 2050 time horizon. To do so, the sectoral structure of the computable general equilibrium model GEMINI-E3 is b ...
Iwa Publishing2015Comparison of stream temperature modeling approaches: the case of a high Alpine watershed
Michael Lehning, Wolf Hendrik Huwald, Francesco Comola, Aurélien Gallice
Stream temperature controls important aspects of the riverine habitat, such as the rate of spawning or death of many fish species, or the concentration of numerous dissolved substances. In the current context of accelerating climate change, the future evol ...
2015Economic Impacts of Future Changes in the Energy System - National Perspectives
In a climate constrained future, hybrid energy-economy model coupling gives additional insight into interregional competition, trade, industrial delocalisation and overall macroeconomic consequences of decarbonising the energy system. Decarbonising the ene ...
Springer International Publishing2015Sensitivity of air quality to potential future climate change and emissions in the United States and major cities
Simulated present and future air quality is compared for the years 2006-2010 and 2048-2052 over the contiguous United States (CONUS) using the Community Multi-scale Air Quality (CMAQ) model. Regionally downscaled present and future climate results are deve ...
Elsevier Ltd2014Land management trumps the effects of climate change and elevated CO2 on grassland functioning
Pierre Rémi Mariotte, Aurélie Thébault
- Grasslands cover similar to 30% of the Earth's terrestrial surface and provide many ecosystem services. Many grasslands are heavily managed to maximize these services for human benefit, but the outcome of management is anticipated to be increasingly inf ...
PLASIM-ENTSem v1.0: a spatio-temporal emulator of future climate change for impacts assessment
Frédéric Louis François Babonneau
Many applications in the evaluation of climate impacts and environmental policy require detailed spatio-temporal projections of future climate. To capture feedbacks from impacted natural or socio-economic systems requires interactive two-way coupling, but ...
