Coupling ocean currents and waves for seamless cross-scale modeling during Medicane Ianos [PDF]

open access: yesOcean Science
This study investigates the effects of a two-way wave–circulation coupled modeling framework during extreme weather events, with a particular focus on Medicane Ianos, one of the most intense cyclones to have occurred in the Mediterranean Sea.

Complex drought patterns robustly explain global yield loss for major crops

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Multi-purpose crops as maize, rice, soybean, and wheat are key in the debate concerning food, land, water and energy security and sustainability. While strong evidence exists on the effects of climate variability on the production of these crops, so far ...

Limits of Compartmental Models and New Opportunities for Machine Learning: A Case Study to Forecast the Second Wave of COVID-19 Hospitalizations in Lombardy, Italy

open access: yesInformatics, 2021
Compartmental models have long been used in epidemiological studies for predicting disease spread. However, a major issue when using compartmental mathematical models concerns the time-invariant formulation of hyper-parameters that prevent the model from

Abrupt climate changes of the last deglaciation detected in a Western Mediterranean forest record [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Abrupt changes in Western Mediterranean climate during the last deglaciation (20 to 6 cal ka BP) are detected in marine core MD95-2043 (Alboran Sea) through the investigation of high-resolution pollen data and pollen-based climate reconstructions by the ...

Precipitation in a warming world: Assessing projected hydro-climate changes in California and other Mediterranean climate regions

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
In most Mediterranean climate (MedClim) regions around the world, global climate models (GCMs) consistently project drier futures. In California, however, projections of changes in annual precipitation are inconsistent. Analysis of daily precipitation in

Developing Representative Impact Scenarios From Climate Projection Ensembles, With Application to UKCP18 and EURO‐CORDEX Precipitation

open access: yesJournal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, 2023
Calculating impacts from climate projection ensembles can be challenging. A simple approach might consider just the ensemble mean, but this ignores much of the information in the ensemble and does not explore the range of possible impacts.

On the key role of droughts in the dynamics of summer fires in Mediterranean Europe [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Summer fires frequently rage across Mediterranean Europe, often intensified by high temperatures and droughts. According to the state-of-the-art regional fire risk projections, in forthcoming decades climate effects are expected to become stronger and ...

A research and development investment strategy to achieve the Paris climate agreement

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
Climate stabilization requires the deployment of several low-carbon options, some of which are still not available at large scale or are too costly. Governments will have to make important decisions on how to incentivize Research and Development (R&D ...
