Drivers of accelerated warming in Mediterranean climate-type regions

npj Climate and Atmospheric Science, 2023
The near-surface temperature in Mediterranean climate-type regions has increased overall similarly or more rapidly than the global mean rates. Although these regions have comparable climate characteristics and are located at similar latitudes, recent ...

Dynamic Evaluation of the Effects of Climate Change on the Energy Renovation of a School in a Mediterranean Climate

Sustainability, 2021
This paper addresses the effects of long-term climate change on retrofit actions on a school building located in a Mediterranean climate. Dynamic energy simulations were performed using Termolog EpiX 11, first with conventional climate data and then with

Biodiversity, climate change, and adaptation in the Mediterranean [PDF]

Ecosphere, 2022
AbstractPotential for, and limits to, adaptation to environmental changes are critical for resilience and risk mitigation. The Mediterranean basin is a mosaic of biodiversity‐rich ecosystems long affected by human influence, whose resilience is now questioned by climate change.

Climate Change in the Mediterranean Basin (Part II): A Review of Challenges and Uncertainties in Climate Change Modeling and Impact Analyses

Water resources management, 2023
The Mediterranean basin is particularly prone to climate change and vulnerable to its impacts. One of the most relevant consequences of climate change, especially for the southern Mediterranean regions, is certainly water scarcity as result of a ...

MSG-GAN-SD: A Multi-Scale Gradients GAN for Statistical Downscaling of 2-Meter Temperature over the EURO-CORDEX Domain

AI, 2021
One of the most important open challenges in climate science is downscaling. It is a procedure that allows making predictions at local scales, starting from climatic field information available at large scale. Recent advances in deep learning provide new

Climate Variability and Change of Mediterranean-Type Climates [PDF]

Journal of Climate, 2019
AbstractMediterranean-type climates are defined by temperate, wet winters, and hot or warm dry summers and exist at the western edges of five continents in locations determined by the geography of winter storm tracks and summer subtropical anticyclones.
