Cities Exacerbate Climate Warming [PDF]

Urban Science, 2021
Urbanization is a complex land transformation not explicitly resolved within large-scale climate models. Long-term timeseries of high-resolution satellite data are essential to characterize urbanization within land surface models and to assess its ...

Future dust concentration over the Middle East and North Africa region under global warming and stratospheric aerosol intervention scenarios [PDF]

Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2023
The Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region is the dustiest region in the world, and understanding the projected changes in the dust concentrations in the region is crucial.

Effect of Experiment Warming on Soil Fungi Community of Medicago sativa, Elymus nutans and Hordeum vulgare in Tibet

Journal of Fungi, 2023
The uncertainty response of soil fungi community to climate warming in alpine agroecosystems will limit our ability to fully exploit and utilize soil fungi resources, especially in alpine regions.

Soil warming increases soil temperature sensitivity in subtropical Forests of SW China [PDF]

PeerJ, 2019
Background Soil respiration (RS) plays an important role in the concentration of atmospheric CO2 and thus in global climate patterns. Due to the feedback between RS and climate, it is important to investigate RS responses to climate warming.

Response of rice phenology to climate warming weakened across China during 1981–2018: did climatic or anthropogenic factors play a role?

Environmental Research Letters, 2022
Climate warming has substantially shifted plant phenology, which alters the length of growing season and consequently affects plant productivity. Recent studies showed a stalled or reversed impact of climate change on vegetation phenology since 1998, as ...

Classification of atmospheric particles over the Urmia Lake: Two case studies [PDF]

E3S Web of Conferences
In this study, we examined the aerosols in the Urmia Lake atmosphere, using a polarization lidar, looking for traces of salt particles. Urmia Lake is a hypersaline lake and most part of it now is dry.

Storm Track Changes in the Middle East and North Africa Under Stratospheric Aerosol Geoengineering

Geophysical Research Letters, 2020
As a potential approach to prevent dangerous climate change, stratospheric aerosol geoengineering (SAG) aims to reflect some incoming solar radiation into space and reduce temperatures.

Projected soil organic carbon loss in response to climate warming and soil water content in a loess watershed

Carbon Balance and Management, 2021
Background Soil organic carbon (SOC) plays a crucial role in the global carbon cycle and terrestrial ecosystem functions. It is widely known that climate change and soil water content (SWC) could influence the SOC dynamics; however, there are still ...

Investigation of atmospheric particles in Urmia Lake region using a hand-held sun-photometer [PDF]

E3S Web of Conferences
Urmia Lake is a hypersaline lake in Northwest Iran. Regions inside its water catchment area experience frequent dust events. We are reporting the results of a two-year measurement campaign using a Calitoo sunphotometer, alongside synoptic measurements ...
