Reservoir regulation affects droughts and floods at local and regional scales

open access: yesEnvironmental Research Letters, 2021
Hydrological extremes can be particularly impactful in catchments with high human presence where they are modulated by human intervention such as reservoir regulation.

Climatic and human influences on water resources in low atolls [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Low, small islands have water supply problems amongst the most critical in the world. Fresh groundwater, the major source of water in many atolls, is vulnerable to natural and human-induced changes.

A General Overview of the Risk-Reduction Strategies for Floods and Droughts

open access: yesSustainability, 2020
Water is a limited resource but essential to sustaining life and supporting economic development. Only 2.5% of all the water on Earth is freshwater and can be used to meet basic human needs such as a clean supply of water for drinking, cooking, and ...

MdDSK2a‐Like‐MdMTA Module Functions in Apple Cold Response via Regulating ROS Detoxification and Cell Wall Deposition

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Under cold stress, MdDSK2a‐like is degraded via the 26S proteasome pathway, thereby alleviating the degradation of MdMTA induced by the 26S proteasome and autophagy pathways mediated by MdDSK2a‐like. The accumulated MdMTA increases the m6A levels of cold‐responsive genes, thereby contributing to increased ROS detoxification, deposition of cell wall, as

Validity of estimating flood and drought characteristics under equilibrium climates from transient simulations

open access: yesEnvironmental Research Letters, 2021
Future flood and drought risks have been predicted to transition from moderate to high levels at global warmings of 1.5 °C and 2.0 °C above pre-industrial levels, respectively. However, these results were obtained by approximating the equilibrium climate

Standardized drought indices: A novel uni- and multivariate approach [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2015
As drought is among the natural hazards which affects people and economies worldwide and often results in huge monetary losses sophisticated methods for drought monitoring and decision making are needed. Several different approaches to quantify drought have been developed during past decades. However, most of these drought indices suffer from different

How well do CMIP5 climate simulations replicate historical trends and patterns of meteorological droughts? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Assessing the uncertainties and understanding the deficiencies of climate models are fundamental to developing adaptation strategies. The objective of this study is to understand how well Coupled Model Intercomparison-Phase 5 (CMIP5) climate model ...
