The assessment of aridity conditions is a key factor for water management and the implementation mitigation adaptation policies in agroforestry systems. Towards this aim, three indices were computed Iberian Peninsula (IP): De Martonne Index (DMI), Pinna Combinative (PCI), Erinç Aridity (EAI). These first baseline period 1961–1990, using gridded observational data (E-OBS), subsequently, periods ...

This study aims at analysing the impact of climate change (CC) on river hydrology a complex mountainous basin—the Budhigandaki River Basin (BRB)—using Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) hydrological model that was calibrated validated in Part I this research. A relatively new approach selecting global models (GCMs) for each two selected RCPs, 4.5 (stabilization scenario) 8.5 (high emission s...

Mean sea-level is expected to rise significantly by 2100 in all scenarios, including those compatible with the objectives of Paris Climate Agreement. Global sea level projections indicate devastating implications for populations, ecosystem services and biodiversity. The (SLR) on low-lying islands coastal regions communities are substantial require deep-rooted coping measures. In absence adequat...

The global hydrological cycle is susceptible to climate change (CC), particularly in underdeveloped countries like Pakistan that lack appropriate management of precious freshwater resources. study aims evaluate CC impact on stream flow the Soan River Basin (SRB). explores two general circulation models (GCMs), which involve Access 1.0 and CNRM-CM5 using three metrological stations (Rawalpindi, ...

Temperature rise is a concern for future agriculture in different regions of the globe. This study aimed to reveal changes and variabilities minimum temperature (Tmin) maximum (Tmax) monthly, seasonal, annual scale over Bangladesh using 40 General Circulation Models (GCMs) Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 5 (CMIP5) two radiative concentration pathways (RCPs, RCP4.5 RCP8.5). The stati...

Abstract. The study of past climates has demonstrated the occurrence Heinrich events during which major ice discharges occurred at polar sheet, leading to significant additional sea level rise. strongly influenced oceanic circulation and global climate. However, standard climate change scenarios (Representative Concentration Pathways or RCPs) do not consider such potential rapid sheet collapse;...

Understanding the future drought condition is critical to coping with challenge of climate change. This study evaluated simulation capability 30 Global Climate Models (GCMs) provided by Coupled Model InterComparison Project Phase 6 (CMIP6) in simulating precipitation (P), potential evapotranspiration (PET) and temperature (T) arid Central Asia (ACA), estimated dry-wet climatic characteristics t...

Aim The aim was to study anorectal function in long-term survivors after combined, curatively intended, chemoradiotherapy and endorectal brachytherapy for low rectal cancer. Methods This a case–control design. We compared by anal manometry, functional lumen imaging probe (EndoFLIP) bag distension cancer patients (RCPs) healthy, normal subjects (NSs). Symptoms were assessed the anterior resectio...
