Seasonal Predictions and Their Applications in the Mediterranean Region: Part I—Sources of Predictability and Prediction Skill

open access: yesInternational Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
The ability to predict climate fluctuations at seasonal timescales offers significant socio‐economic benefits. However, limited understanding of predictability mechanisms and model errors hinders forecast quality. Recent research has improved forecasting systems and data quality.

Evaluation of Satellite-Derived Estimates of Lake Ice Cover Timing on Linnévatnet, Kapp Linné, Svalbard Using In-Situ Data

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2022
Arctic lakes are sensitive to climate change, and the timing and duration of ice presence and absence (i.e., ice phenology) on the lake surface can be used as a climate indicator.

Implications of climate change for coastal and inter-tidal habitats in the UK [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Coastal habitats are diverse and vary in the extent to which they are shaped by physiographic processes, such as wave action, wind, tides and sediment availability, and the relative influence of terrestrial and marine environments, e.g.

Monitoring Ice Phenology in Lake Wetlands Based on Optical Satellite Data: A Case Study of Wuliangsu Lake

open access: yesWater, 2022
It is challenging to obtain the ice phenology for a lake covered with a vast area of aquatic (shallow lake wetlands) using optical satellite data because possible clouds above the lake could contaminate the result.

Climate regulates alpine lake ice cover phenology and aquatic ecosystem structure [PDF]

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2016
AbstractHigh‐elevation aquatic ecosystems are highly vulnerable to climate change, yet relatively few records are available to characterize shifts in ecosystem structure or their underlying mechanisms. Using a long‐term data set on seven alpine lakes (3126 to 3620 m) in Colorado, USA, we show that ice‐off dates have shifted 7 days earlier over the past

Compound Hot‐Dry Days (CHDDs) and Their Implications on Maize Yields in the Free State Province, South Africa

open access: yesInternational Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
Compound hot‐dry events occurring during the maize growing period are increasing significantly (p < 0.05) with time, with the median values ranging from 93 to 120 days. El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO) influences the variability of compound hot‐dry events with high significance (p < 0.05) positive Pearson correlation.

Hidden Markov Quantile Models With Trends for Analysing Air Temperature Data

open access: yesInternational Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
There is the question of whether climate change, expressed by time‐trends in temperature, is of a heterogeneous nature or not. Here, the time‐trend heterogeneity argument has been investigated using Hidden Markov (HM) quantile time‐trends models in temperature time series.

Berberis microphylla: A species with phenotypic plasticity in different climatic conditions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Berberis microphylla G. Forst., commonly called as "calafate" produces small fruits with high content of carbohydrates, phenols and antioxidants. The objective of this work was to characterize the vegetative and reproductive cycle of Berberis microphylla
