Evaluating the Potential of Roof Water Harvesting System for Drinking Water Supplies During Emergencies Under the Impacts of Climate Change: ‘A Case Study of Swat District, Pakistan’

Standards
It is well understood that climate change is a major cause of the environmental shifts that are significantly impacting human lives. The floods caused by climate change are not only occurring more frequently each year, but they also bring up the problem ...

Decomposing Future Exposure from Increasing Flood Risk and Forecast Population Changes Across Shared Socioeconomic Pathways (SSPs) in the United States

Water
Extreme weather events, like flooding, are expected to become more severe due to climate change and increasingly impact populations across the US. Adding to this challenge, populations have concurrently settled in risky areas that were previously thought to have low, or no, exposure.

Updating the Shared Socioeconomic Pathways (SSPs) Global Population and Human Capital Projections

The first set of population projections following the Shared Socioeconomic Pathways (SSPs) was developed in 2013. These projections have found widespread use within the environmental and climate change community, among others. In 2018, an SSPs update was generated but not integrated into the SSP database.

Significant increase and escalation of drought-flood abrupt alteration in China's future

Agricultural Water Management
Drought-flood abrupt alteration (DFAA) events threaten global food security, exacerbated by global warming, particularly in China. Given this, a more refined and comprehensive analysis of DFAA events in China can provide valuable insights for global ...

Spatial-temporal assessment of future population exposure to compound extreme precipitation-high temperature events across China.

PLoS ONE
Global warming has increased the probability of extreme climate events, with compound extreme events having more severe impacts on socioeconomics and the environment than individual extremes.

Prediction and Spatiotemporal Transfer of Vegetation Vulnerability in the South African Coastal Zone Under Different Shared Socioeconomic Pathway (SSP) Scenarios

Diversity
Against the background of the rapid transformation of traditional economies and societies and continuous global climate change, how to ensure the long-term stability of the coastal ecological environment has become a key issue to be studied. In this paper, we take the 20 km buffer zone extending inland from the South African coastal zone as the study ...
