Geomorphological indicators of large-scale climatic changes in the Eastern Bolivian lowlands [PDF]

open access: yesGeographica Helvetica, 2006
Abstract. This study provides an inventory of geomorphological landforms in Eastern Bolivia at different spatial scales. Landforms and associated processes are interpreted and discussed regarding landscape evolution and paleoclimatic significance.

Impacts of a lengthening open water season on Alaskan coastal communities: deriving locally relevant indices from large-scale datasets and community observations [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere, 2018
Using thresholds of physical climate variables developed from community observations, together with two large-scale datasets, we have produced local indices directly relevant to the impacts of a reduced sea ice cover on Alaska coastal communities. The

Assessment of Central Asian heat extremes by statistical downscaling: Validation and future projection for 2015‒2100

open access: yesAdvances in Climate Change Research, 2022
Increasing heatwaves and extreme temperatures have recently been observed across Central Asia (CA). Accurately assessing and projecting the changing climate extremes at the local (station) scale required for climate risk management are therefore highly ...

An MRA Based MLR Model for Forecasting Indian Annual Rainfall Using Large Scale Climate Indices

open access: yesInternational Journal of Environment and Climate Change, 2023
A novel method for rainfall forecasting has been proposed using Multi Resolution Analysis (MRA). This approach decomposes annual rainfall series and long-term climate indices into component sub-series at different temporal scales, allowing for a more detailed analysis of the factors influencing annual rainfall.

Bringing statistical learning machines together for hydro-climatological predictions - Case study for Sacramento San joaquin River Basin, California

open access: yesJournal of Hydrology: Regional Studies, 2020
Study region: Sacramento San Joaquin River Basin, California Study focus: The study forecasts the streamflow at a regional scale within SSJ river basin with largescale climate variables. The proposed approach eliminates the bias resulting from predefined

Why large-scale climate indices seem to predict ecological processes better than local weather

open access: yesNature, 2004
Large-scale climatic indices such as the North Atlantic Oscillation are associated with population dynamics, variation in demographic rates and values of phenotypic traits in many species. Paradoxically, these large-scale indices can seem to be better predictors of ecological processes than local climate.

Assessing the solar variability signature in climate variables by information theory and wavelet coherence

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
The present study aims to investigate the possible influence of solar/geomagnetic forcing on climate variables, such as the drought index, Danube discharge and large-scale atmospheric indices. Our analysis was performed separately for each season for two

Rainfall Variability and Teleconnections with Large-Scale Atmospheric Circulation Patterns in West-Central Morocco

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2023
Morocco is characterized by a semi-arid climate influenced by the Mediterranean, Atlantic, and Saharan environments, resulting in high variability in rainfall and hydrological conditions.

Towards a more comprehensive assessment of the intensity of historical European heat waves (1979–2019)

open access: yesAtmospheric Science Letters, 2022
Europe has been affected by record‐breaking heat waves in recent decades. Using station data and a gridded reanalysis as input, four commonly used heat wave indices, the heat wave magnitude index daily (HWMId), excess heat factor (EHF), wet‐bulb globe ...
