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.

Classification of atmospheric particles over the Urmia Lake: Two case studies [PDF]
E3S Web of ConferencesIn 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.

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 ...

Polar Bears in a Warming Climate [PDF]
Integrative and Comparative Biology, 2004 Polar bears (Ursus maritimus) live throughout the ice-covered waters of the circumpolar Arctic, particularly in near shore annual ice over the continental shelf where biological productivity is highest. However, to a large degree under scenarios predicted by climate change models, these preferred sea ice habitats will be substantially altered.

Transient and Quasi‐Equilibrium Climate States at 1.5°C and 2°C Global Warming
Earth's Future, 2021 Recent climate change is characterized by rapid global warming, but the goal of the Paris Agreement is to achieve a stable climate where global temperatures remain well below 2°C above pre‐industrial levels.

Trophic amplification of climate warming [PDF]
Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 2009 Ecosystems can alternate suddenly between contrasting persistent states due to internal processes or external drivers. It is important to understand the mechanisms by which these shifts occur, especially in exploited ecosystems. There have been several abrupt marine ecosystem shifts attributed either to fishing, recent climate change or a combination ...

The Impacts of Global Warming on Climate Zone Changes Over Asia Based on CMIP6 Projections
Earth and Space Science, 2021 It is challenging to estimate how the regional climate will be shifted under future global warming. To reduce the potential risk of regional climate shift under future climates, examining the change in climate features over Asia is important, as ...

Increasing the effectiveness of participatory scenario development through codesign
Ecology and Society, 2017 Developing scenarios to explore possible environmental futures is a widely used tool in social-ecological research. Scenario planners working in environmental systems increasingly enlist stakeholders to help develop scenarios, but effectively integrating

Soil indigenous nutrients increase the resilience of maize yield to climatic warming in China
Environmental Research Letters, 2020 Climate warming leads to crop yield loss. Although investigations have shown the region-specific effect of climate warming on maize yield in China, the determinants of this region-specific effect are poorly known.
