The Climate in Climate Economics [PDF]
Abstract To analyse climate change mitigation strategies, economists rely on simplified climate models—so-called climate emulators—that provide a realistic quantitative link between CO2 emissions and global warming at low computational costs.

Human civilizations depend on the climate. Changes in climate affect the production of food and other resources that support populations and their economies. We asked whether the millennium-scale climate cooling events identified by Gerard Bond predicted

Climate and climate change [PDF]
The Earth's climate system at fine spatial and temporal scales is chaotic, with evolving weather patterns often notoriously difficult to predict very far in advance. At regional scales, surface conditions are modulated by seasonal to decadal oscillations in surface temperature, precipitation, sea-ice extent, and ocean upwelling.

The physics of climate variability and climate change [PDF]
The climate system is a forced, dissipative, nonlinear, complex and heterogeneous system that is out of thermodynamic equilibrium. The system exhibits natural variability on many scales of motion, in time as well as space, and it is subject to various external forcings, natural as well as anthropogenic.

Problem of chronobiological cyclic of movement of forest ecosystems properties. Communication 2 [PDF]
On the basis of generalization of materials of long-term research, it is shown objectively, steadily, continuously and everywhere manifested action of the law of cyclic recurrence of movement of all properties of forest organisms and ecosystems.

Climate Change and Utah Ski Resorts: Impacts, Perceptions, and Adaptation Strategies
Climate change is a threat to ski resorts, the ski industry, and mountain communities that rely on ski tourism. Ski resorts may be able to mitigate some of the social and economic impacts caused by climate change with proactive adaptation strategies ...

Daily runoff is the data to estimate the water resources in a river. In many catchments, the daily discharge is not well observed. Flow duration curve is an important characteristic of daily runoff, and important for the design of water conservancy ...

Faustmann and the Climate [PDF]
Abstract The paper presents an adjusted Faustmann Rule for optimal harvest of a forest when there is a social cost of carbon emissions. The theoretical framework takes account of the dynamics and interactions of forests’ multiple carbon pools and assumes an infinite time horizon. Our paper provides a theoretical foundation for numerical model studies

Urban Climates and Climate Change [PDF]
Cities are particularly vulnerable to extreme weather episodes, which are expected to increase with climate change. Cities also influence their own local climate, for example, through the relative warming known as the urban heat island (UHI) effect. This review discusses urban climate features (even in complex terrain) and processes.
