Landscape properties mediate the homogenization of bird assemblages during climatic extremes [PDF]
Extreme weather events, such as drought, have marked impacts on biotic communities. In many regions, a predicted increase in occurrence of such events will be imposed on landscapes already heavily modified by human land use. There is an urgency, therefore, to understand the way in which the effects of such events may be exacerbated, or moderated, by ...

Homogenization and species compositional shifts in subalpine vegetation during the 60-year period
Subalpine and alpine plant communities are considered highly sensitive and hence endangered by global changes. In central Europe, the highly sensitive habitats are also influenced by human activities: land use, industrial pollution, and tourism.

Estimating integrated water vapor trends from VLBI, GPS,and numerical weather models: sensitivity totropospheric parameterization [PDF]
©2018. American Geophysical UnionIn this study, we estimate integrated water vapor (IWV) trends from very long baseline interferometry (VLBI) and global navigation satellite systems (GNSS) data analysis, as well as from numerical weather models (NWMs ...

Extreme Months: Multidimensional Studies in the Carpathian Basin
In addition to the one-dimensional mathematical statistical methods used to study the climate and its possible variations, the study of several elements together is also worthwhile.

Inhomogeneities in climate data are the main source of uncertainty for secular warming estimates. To reduce the influence of inhomogeneities in station data statistical homogenization compares a candidate station to its neighbours to detect and correct ...

Comparing climate change indices between a northern (arid) and a southern (humid) basin in Mexico during the last decades [PDF]
It is a matter of current study to determine potential climate changes in different parts of the world, especially in regions like a basin which has the potential to affect socioeconomic and environmental issues in a defined area.

Effective macroscopic dynamics of stochastic partial differential equations in perforated domains
An effective macroscopic model for a stochastic microscopic system is derived. The original microscopic system is modeled by a stochastic partial differential equation defined on a domain perforated with small holes or heterogeneities.

A polyelectrolyte complex‐based sorbent is produced by scalable, environmentally benign aqueous phase inversion. Its porous, LiCl‐ and GO‐integrated architecture enables hourly adsorption−desorption cycles at low relative humidity (RH < 30%). A large‐scale prototype achieves multicyclic, solar‐driven atmospheric water harvesting of 1.37 L kg−1 day−1 ...

Homogenized dynamics of stochastic partial differential equations with dynamical boundary conditions
A microscopic heterogeneous system under random influence is considered. The randomness enters the system at physical boundary of small scale obstacles as well as at the interior of the physical medium.

Homogeneous climate risk zones in Brazil
ABSTRACT Brazil has a heterogeneous climate throughout its territory which makes it difficult to outline a single climate risk management strategy. However, this unification can occur within sub-regions that present homogeneous climatic risk. In this context, the aim of this study was to delineate homogeneous climate risk zones in Brazil.
