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, ...

Forcing watershed models with downscaled climate data to quantify future water regime changes can improve confidence in planning. The Soil Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) was calibrated (R2 = 0.77, NSE 0.76, and PBIAS 7.1) validated 0.8, 0.78, 8.8) using observed monthly streamflow a representative mountainous the northeastern United States. Four global (GCMs) under two Representative Concentratio...

Understanding the response of extreme precipitation (EP) at a city scale to global warming is critical reducing respective risk urban flooding. Yet, current knowledge on this issue limited. Here, focusing an agglomeration in tropics, Singapore, we reveal that future enhances both frequency and intensity EP, based simulations with state-of-the-art convection-permitting regional climate model. EP...

Climate change will alter the site conditions for European vegetation. This is likely to shift potential distribution of species and habitats outside its current boundaries. To enable future projections on shifts in vegetation potentials, we fitted a multiclass model natural (PNV) Europe using climatic predictors. The was then applied climate data time slice 2061–2080 with Representative Concen...

The evaluation of climatic change impact on maize grain and biomass yield under different N management practices through a well-calibrated validated APSIM model in Vertisol central India has been made. Climate scenarios were derived from seven global climate models (GCM) for two representative concentration pathways (RCPs), i.e. RCP4.5 RCP8.5, two-time slices, 2050 2080. five scenarios, namely ...

Assessing the impacts of both climate and land use changes on hydrologic variables is crucial for sustainable development water resources natural ecosystems. We conducted a case study catchment in southwestern Australia to assess future changes, separately combination, resource availability. For this evaluation, Soil Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) model was first calibrated then forced by 34 glob...

Abstract Juglans regia L. is a species of great importance for environmental management due to attractive wood and nutritious fruits, but also high invasive potential. Thus, uncertainties connected with its range shift are essential management. We aimed predict the future climatic optimum J. in Europe under changing climate, assess most important factors that determine potential distribution, c...

As the pressure to take action against global warming is growing in urgency, scenarios that incorporate multiple social, economic and environmental drivers become increasingly critical support governments other stakeholders planning climate change mitigation or adaptation actions. This has led recent explosion of future scenario analyses at scales, further accelerated since development Intergov...

Unlike global and regional assessments, the spatio-temporal variability of air temperature precipitation, caused by climate change, must be more useful when assessment is made at sub-regional to local scale. Thus, this study aims assess possible changes in precipitation patterns for late 21st century relative present Mozambique. The model, RegCM4, driven model HadGEM2, was used perform downscal...
