Assessing Past and Future Temperature‐ and Precipitation‐Based Indicators in the Republic of Yemen

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
For the first time in the literature, this work assesses the past and future climatic trends over Yemen, a highly vulnerable country for which science‐based, high‐quality information for the development of climate change adaptation plans was not available until now.

Sensitivity of projected long-term CO 2 emissions across the Shared Socioeconomic Pathways [PDF]

, 2017
Scenarios showing future greenhouse gas emissions are needed to estimate climate impacts and the mitigation efforts required for climate stabilization. Recently, the Shared Socioeconomic Pathways (SSPs) have been introduced to describe alternative social,

Projected 21st Century Changes in Precipitation and Temperature Over Italy Using CMIP6 CMCC‐CM2‐SR5 Model and COSMO‐CLM Dynamical Downscaling

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
This study evaluates the COSMO‐CLM regional climate model over Italy under CMIP6 scenarios. Compared to its driving global model, COSMO‐CLM reduces temperature biases by 50%–75% and better represents precipitation and extremes, adding critical mesoscale detail.

Identifying Sustainability and Knowledge Gaps in Socio-Economic Pathways Vis-à-Vis the Sustainable Development Goals [PDF]

, 2018
With the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), the global community has set itself an ambitious development agenda. Current analytical and quantitative modeling capabilities fall short of being able to capture all 17 SDGs and their targets.

Projected Evolution of Climatic Aridity in Spain: Robust Signals and Model Uncertainties

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
This study examines the projected evolution of climatic aridity in Spain throughout the 21st century, using the UNEP Aridity Index and CMIP6 simulations under different emission scenarios and global warming levels. Despite model biases, results show a general increase in aridity across the country, particularly in southern regions and the Canary ...

Dry‐Season Water Deficits in the Southwestern Amazon Under High Emissions

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
Projected climatic water deficit in the study region indicates a longer and more intense dry season, with delays in the onset of the wet season under higher emission scenarios. These changes, particularly, pronounced under SSP5‐8.5, suggest increased ecological vulnerability and greater seasonal water stress.
