Redefining Homogeneous Climate Regions in Bangladesh Using Multivariate Clustering Approaches [PDF]

Natural Hazards, 2021
Abstract The knowledge of the climate pattern for a particular region is important to alleviate the impact of climate change and protect the environment by taking appropriate actions based on geographical knowledge. It is also equally important for water resources planning and management. In this study, the regional disparities and similarities

The Homogenization of Urban Climate Action Discourses

Global Environmental Politics, 2023
Abstract The diversification of actors in global climate governance may entail risks, but it is also linked to enhanced democratic performance and opportunities for innovation. To what extent has this diversification fostered a parallel multiplication of perspectives in urban climate policy?

A New Homogenized Climate Division Precipitation Dataset for Analysis of Climate Variability and Climate Change [PDF]

Journal of Applied Meteorology and Climatology, 2011
AbstractA new homogeneous climate division monthly precipitation dataset [based on full network estimated precipitation (FNEP)] was created as an alternative to the National Climatic Data Center (NCDC) climate division dataset. These alternative climate division monthly precipitation values were estimated using an equal-weighted average of Cooperative ...

Climatically promoted taxonomic homogenization of macroinvertebrates in unaffected streams varies along the river continuum

Scientific Reports, 2023
Biotic homogenization appears to be a global consequence of anthropogenic change. However, the underlying environmental factors contributing to homogenization are difficult to identify because their effects usually interact and confound each other.

Potential Influence of the Atlantic Multidecadal Oscillation in the Recent Climate of a Small Basin in Central Mexico

Atmosphere, 2022
One of the main current challenges is detecting changes in the climate at the regional level. The present study tried to address this issue by looking for some influence of large-scale climate oscillations on the climate of a small and complex topography

Combination of Using Pairwise Comparisons and Composite Reference Series: A New Approach in the Homogenization of Climatic Time Series with ACMANT

Atmosphere, 2021
The removal of non-climatic biases, so-called inhomogeneities, from long climatic records needs sophistically developed statistical methods. One principle is that the differences between a candidate series and its neighbor series are usually analyzed ...

Diversity and biotic homogenization of urban land-snail faunas in relation to habitat types and macroclimate in 32 central European cities. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
The effects of non-native species invasions on community diversity and biotic homogenization have been described for various taxa in urban environments, but not for land snails.

Spatial Phylogenetics, Biogeographical Patterns and Conservation Implications of the Endemic Flora of Crete (Aegean, Greece) under Climate Change Scenarios

Biology, 2020
Human-induced biodiversity loss has been accelerating since the industrial revolution. The climate change impacts will severely alter the biodiversity and biogeographical patterns at all scales, leading to biotic homogenization.

Upper-Bound General Circulation of the Ocean: A Theoretical Exposition

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2021
This paper considers the general ocean circulation (GOC) within the thermodynamical closure of our climate theory, which aims to deduce the generic climate state from first principles.
