Monitoring climate extremes using standardized evapotranspiration index and future projection of rainfall and temperature in the wettest parts of southwest Ethiopia

Environmental Challenges, 2022
Ethiopia is categorized as one of the most vulnerable countries to climate extremes. A better understanding of climate extremes at short and long timescales is therefore crucial to minimize the potential impacts of these extremes. The present study aimed

Intersecting vulnerabilities: climatic and demographic contributions to future population exposure to Aedes-borne viruses in the United States

Environmental Research Letters, 2020
Understanding how climate change and demographic factors may shape future population exposure to viruses such as Zika, dengue, or chikungunya, transmitted by Aedes mosquitoes is essential to improving public health preparedness. In this study, we combine

Potential distribution of crop wild relatives under climate change in Sri Lanka: implications for conservation of agricultural biodiversity

Current Research in Environmental Sustainability, 2021
The global population is growing rapidly and food production needs to be stepped up substantially to supply the additional demand expected by projected increased population.

The future of cement: Technological innovation in representative concentration pathways

Journal of Industrial Ecology
Abstract Integrated assessment models (IAMs) provide valuable insights into the cement industry's future trends while ensuring scenario consistency on a global and economy‐wide scale. However, IAMs often have a low technological resolution, omitting a wide range of abatement options currently under development for

Representative concentration pathways and mitigation scenarios for nitrous oxide

Environmental Research Letters, 2012
The challenges of mitigating nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions are substantially different from those for carbon dioxide .CO2/ and methane .CH4/, because nitrogen (N) is essential for food production, and over 80% of anthropogenic N2O emissions are from the agricultural sector.

Influence of the Representative Concentration Pathways (RCP) scenarios on the bioclimatic design strategies of the built environment

Sustainable Cities and Society, 2021
Over time, whether through traditional knowledge or the constructive implementation, the relationship of the built environment with the climate conditions of a certain place has been developed. The control of these symbiotic solutions based on the climate-conscious design and their strategic approach have been improved to keep better welfare levels ...

Dependence of Precipitation Scaling Patterns on Emission Scenarios for Representative Concentration Pathways

Journal of Climate, 2013
AbstractPattern scaling is an efficient way to generate projections of regional climate change for various emission scenarios. This approach assumes that the spatial pattern of changes per degree of global warming (scaling pattern) is the same among emission scenarios.
