Assessment of Heat Stress Hazards in Africa Using CMIP6 and NEX-GDDP Datasets

Earth Systems and Environment
Abstract Global climate model simulations from the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 6 (CMIP6) dataset are widely used to produce climate service products for assessing heat stress across Africa. While several studies have identified biases in key variables within CMIP6 and recommended the use of the NASA Earth Exchange ...

Projected Reductions in Staple Crop Production and Nutritional Quality Under Climate Change: Machine Learning Evidence From China

Earth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Staple crops are essential sources of sustenance and macronutrients. While previous studies have overlooked the combined impacts of climate extremes, elevated CO2‐induced nutrient penalties, and resulting nutritional inequities across cities. Moreover, adaptive strategies often emphasize top‐down policies, neglecting tailored measures such as ...

Drought‐Driven Water Insecurity in an Emerging Indian Megacity: A Coupled Multi‐Agent Systems Approach for Policy Evaluation

Earth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Developing regions face critical water security challenges driven by rapid urban growth, economic development, and climate change. In India, these issues are particularly evident in Pune, the country's 9th most populated city. It is evolving into a sprawling urban agglomeration expected to grow from 7 to 11 million residents by mid‐century ...

Exploring the Links Between Variations in Snow Cover Area and Climatic Variables Across the Upper Indus Basin Under a Changing Climate

International Journal of Climatology, Volume 46, Issue 2, February 2026.
Google Earth Engine was utilised to assess snow cover area (SCA) across eight Upper Indus Basin (UIB) subbasins, employing ARIMA for prediction and comparing MODIS datasets using Dunn's test. Spatiotemporal changes were analysed using MK, Sen's slope, and other statistical tests.

Assessment of Historical and Future Mean and Extreme Precipitation Over Sub‐Saharan Africa Using NEX‐GDDP‐CMIP6: Part II—Future Changes

International Journal of Climatology, Volume 46, Issue 1, January 2026.
This study used a Multi‐model Ensemble of 26 NEX‐GDDP projections to assess future precipitation changes in sub‐Saharan Africa under three SSP scenarios. Results indicate increased precipitation in the north and decreased precipitation in the south, with more extreme wet events, highlighting the urgent need for effective adaptation strategies ...

Evaluating the enhanced benefits of multi-model ensemble mean from NEX-GDDP-CMIP6 versus native CMIP6 Models in accurately representing historical temperature patterns in South America

Environmental Challenges
We assessed the additional value of the NEX-GDDP-CMIP6 (NEX ensemble) temperature models compared with that of their original CMIP6 models across seven climatic sub-regions in South America from 1950 to 2014, aiming to identify the best-performing models

Small and Medium‐Sized Inland Waterbodies: Water Volume Predictions and Flood Implications

Water Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract Small (<10 ha) and medium (10–100 ha) inland waterbodies are crucial for water storage and flood regulation, necessitating an improved understanding of their water volume. Traditional water volume measurement methods, modeling techniques, and advanced altimetry missions struggle to capture the non‐linear volume changes in these waterbodies ...
