ABSTRACT Land degradation driven by rapid land‐use and climate‐driven vegetation dynamics increasingly threatens ecosystem stability in semi‐arid wetland basins, yet predictive ecosystem health assessments remain limited in Sub‐Saharan Africa. This study evaluates historical dynamics and future trajectories of ecosystem health in the Ziway‐Shalla Sub ...

Significance of Size‐Dependent Hygroscopicity Parameterization for Aerosol‐Cloud Interactions
Abstract Aerosol‐cloud interactions (aerosol indirect effects) are the most significant source of uncertainties in the effective radiative forcing (ERF) due to aerosols which can act as cloud condensation nuclei (CCN). Uncertainties in the indirect effect can result from systematic uncertainties in aerosol water uptake (hygroscopicity).

Abstract We evaluate tropical cyclone (TC) representation in CORDEX ERA5‐driven simulations from the New South Wales and Australian Regional Climate Modelling Project (NARCliM2.0) over the Australian region at ∼20 km resolution for the period 1980–2020.

The role of aerosol trends in rainfall over India
Anthropogenic aerosol emissions have shown an increasing trend over India since the beginning of the twenty-first century, in contrast to many other regions. The associated aerosol radiative effects are thus expected to be gradually enhanced. Here, using

Abstract Southern Hemisphere (SH) circulation and surface climate changes are emerging in recent decades. For example, in most seasons, the SH Hadley cell edge and the eddy‐driven jet stream have shifted polewards, and the Southern Annular Mode (SAM) has trended towards its positive phase.

Projections of Earth's Hottest Surface Temperatures in CMIP6
Abstract Earth's hottest near‐surface air temperatures provide a benchmark for the upper tail of land heat extremes. Using CMIP6 simulations, we evaluate historical extremes against Berkeley Earth and project future changes under SSP2‐4.5 and abrupt‐4 × CO2 ${\text{CO}}_{2}$.

Weak Tropical Tropospheric OH Response to Idealized ENSO
Abstract The hydroxyl radical (OH) is a key oxidant for methane. Previous studies suggest that OH exhibits interannual variability linked to the El Nino–Southern Oscillation (ENSO), but the sign, magnitude, and underlying mechanisms of this response remain uncertain.

Pacific Warming Pattern Discrepancy Linked to Spurious Rainband in Climate Models
Abstract The distinctive pattern of observed Pacific surface temperature trends, with cooling in the east and intensified warming in the west, departs from the more uniform warming anticipated by climate models. The apparent inability of climate models to simulate this warming pattern limits our ability to understand why it is occurring and to predict ...

The Portrait of Flood Risk in Italy: Past, Present and Future, From 1870 to 2100
Abstract Among European countries, Italy ranks as one of the most susceptible to flood risk. While this figure is already substantial, climate change and rapid urbanization in flood‐prone areas have been identified as the two main drivers expected to elevate the number of individuals at risk.
