Climate resilience and energy performance of future buildings in Nigeria based on RCP 4.5 and 8.5 scenarios

open access: yesJournal of Design for Resilience in Architecture and Planning, 2023
The predicted rise in global temperature by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change IPCC appeals for a review of the methods and materials used for building construction for reduced emissions and comfort in buildings. Buildings account for the most

Evaluation of the use of a photovoltaic installation in the autumn and winter in the aspect of climate change [PDF]

open access: yesActa Scientiarum Polonorum. Formatio Circumiectus
Aim of the study: In the face of inevitable climate change and high energy demand during the heating season (October–March), an attempt was made to estimate the change in available total radiation over a 60-year perspective (2000–2060).

Is land use producing robust signals in future projections from Earth system models, all else being equal?

open access: yesEnvironmental Research Letters, 2023
We use six Earth system models (ESMs) run under SSP3-7.0, a scenario characterized by a relatively large land use change (LUC) over the 21st century, and under a variant of the same scenario where a significantly different pattern of LUC, taken from SSP1-

Predicting the potential habitat suitability and distribution of “Weed-Onion” (Asphodelus tenuifolius Cavan.) in India under predicted climate change scenarios

open access: yesJournal of Agriculture and Food Research, 2023
Recent shifts in the spectrum of weeds documented throughout the globe in various agroecosystems were purportedly associated with climate change. Consequently, it called for a more thorough investigation of weed vulnerabilities and management in the ...

The global and regional impacts of climate change under representative concentration pathway forcings and shared socioeconomic pathway socioeconomic scenarios [PDF]

open access: yesEnvironmental Research Letters, 2019
Abstract This paper presents an evaluation of the global and regional consequences of climate change for heat extremes, water resources, river and coastal flooding, droughts, agriculture and energy use. It presents change in hazard and resource base under different rates of climate change (representative concentration pathways (RCP ...

Optimal allocation model of the water resources in Harbin under representative concentration pathway scenarios [PDF]

open access: yesWater Supply, 2020
AbstractWater conservation is a strategic choice for sustainable societal development. Rational planning and allocation of water resources is an effective way to improve the efficiency of water resource utilization. Taking Harbin as an example, this paper constructs a linear fractional programming model based on chance-constrained programming.

Prediction of Future Natural Suitable Areas for Rice under Representative Concentration Pathways (RCPs) [PDF]

open access: yesSustainability, 2021
Extreme temperature events, which are part of global climate change, are a growing threat to crop production, especially to such temperature-sensitive crops as rice. As a result, the traditional rice-growing areas are also likely to shift. The MaxEnt model was used for predicting the areas potentially suitable for rice in the short term (2016–2035) and

Projection of Air Pollution in Northern China in the Two RCPs Scenarios

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2021
Air pollution in North China (NC) is an important issue affecting the economy and health. In this study, we used a regional climate model, the Weather Research and Forecasting Model with Chemistry (WRF-Chem) to project air pollution in NC and investigate

Future changes in global warming potentials under representative concentration pathways

open access: yesEnvironmental Research Letters, 2011
Global warming potentials (GWPs) are the metrics currently used to compare emissions of different greenhouse gases under the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change. Future changes in greenhouse gas concentrations will alter GWPs because the radiative efficiencies of marginal changes in CO2, CH4 and N2O depend on their background ...

Global wheat production potentials and management flexibility under the representative concentration pathways [PDF]

open access: yesGlobal and Planetary Change, 2014
Abstract Wheat is the third largest crop globally and an essential source of calories in human diets. Maintaining and increasing global wheat production is therefore strongly linked to food security. A large geographic variation in wheat yields across similar climates points to sizeable yield gaps in many nations, and indicates a regionally variable ...
