We assessed the changes in meteorological drought severity and return periods during cropping seasons Afghanistan for period of 1901 to 2010. The droughts country were analyzed using standardized precipitation evapotranspiration index (SPEI). Global Precipitation Climatology Center rainfall Climate Research Unit temperature data both at 0.5° resolutions used this purpose. Seasonal estimated values SPEI fitted with best distribution function. Trends climatic variables modified Mann–Kendal...
The possible changes in precipitation of Syrian due to climate change are projected this study. symmetrical uncertainty (SU) and multi-criteria decision-analysis (MCDA) methods used identify the best general circulation models (GCMs) for projections. effectiveness four bias correction methods, linear scaling (LS), power transformation (PT), quantile mapping (GEQM), gamma (GAQM) is assessed downscaling GCM simulated precipitation. A random forest (RF) model performed generate multi ensemble...
This study assesses the impacts of recent climate changes on drought-affected areas and occurrence droughts during different cropping seasons Nigeria using standardized precipitation evapotranspiration index (SPEI). The crop growing are considered because for those periods more destructive to national agricultural production. Mann–Kendall test binary logistic regression were used quantify trends in with areal extents, respectively. Gauge-based gridded rainfall temperature data period...
Abstract Like many other African countries, incidence of drought is increasing in Nigeria. In this work, spatiotemporal changes droughts under different representative concentration pathway (RCP) scenarios were assessed; considering their greatest impacts on life and livelihoods Nigeria, especially when coincide with the growing seasons. Three entropy-based methods, namely symmetrical uncertainty, gain ratio, entropy used a multi-criteria decision-making framework to select best performing...
Decreases in climatic water availability (CWA) and increases crop demand (CWD) the background of climate change are a major concern arid regions because less higher irrigation requirements for production. Assessment spatiotemporal changes CWA CWD is important adaptation irrigated agriculture to such regions. The recent during growing seasons crops have been assessed Iraq where rapid noticed decades. Gridded precipitation global climatology center (GPCC) gridded temperature research unit...
The study evaluated the ability of 11 global climate models latest two versions Coupled Model Intercomparison Project (CMIP5 and CMIP6) to simulate observed (1965–2005) rainfall, maximum (Tmax) minimum (Tmin) temperatures, mean eastward (uas) northward (vas) wind speed, surface pressure. It also relative uncertainty in projections variables using those CMIPs. European reanalysis (ERA5) data were used as reference evaluate performance GCMs their median multimodel ensembles (MME). revealed...
Abstract This study assesses the water resources and environmental challenges of Lagos mega city, Nigeria, in context climate change. Being a commercial hub, population has grown rapidly causing an insurmountable crisis. In this study, combined field observation, sample analysis, interviews were used to assess challenges. Observed climate, general circulation model (GCM) projections groundwater data due The revealed that unavailability sufficient supply provision overwhelmingly compelled...
Droughts are more damaging when they occur during crop growing season. This research assessed the spatial distribution of drought risks to crops in Bangladesh. Catastrophe theory-based weighting method was used estimate hazard, exposure, and risk by avoiding potential human bias. Ten major crops, including eight different types rice, wheat, potato, were selected for evaluation risk. Results showed that 32.4%, 27.2%, 16.2% land Bangladesh is prone extreme Kharif (May-October), Rabi...
Water is gradually becoming scarce in Afghanistan like many other regions of the globe. The objective this study was to evaluate spatial changes availability and sustainability water resources Afghanistan. Terrestrial Storage (TWS) data Gravity Recovery Climate Experiment (GRACE) satellite obtained from three different institutes, having 1° × resolution for period 2002–2016 used purpose. Sen’s slope method assess rate change, Modified Mann–Kendall test evaluation significance trends TWS....
This study quantified the uncertainties in historical and future average monthly precipitation based on different bias correction methods, General Circulation Models (GCMs), Representative Concentration Pathways (RCPs), projection periods, locations within area (i.e., coastal inland areas of South Korea). The GCMs were downscaled using deep learning, random forest, nine quantile mapping methods for 22 gauge stations Korea. Data from Korean Meteorology Administration (1970–2005) used as...
Over the years, pipelines have been most economic medium for transporting crude oil to production and distribution facilities in Niger Delta area of Nigeria. However, damages this by interdiction hampered continuous flow facilities. Consequently, revenue government dwindles, environment is severely degraded. This study assesses environmental impacts pipeline region. Data from National spills detection response agency, Nigeria used map spatial using Kernel Density Estimation with Geographic...
Due to the recent appearance of shares socioeconomic pathway (SSP) scenarios, there have been many studies that compare results between Coupled Model Intercomparison Project (CMIP)5 and CMIP6 general circulation models (GCMs). This study attempted project future drought characteristics in Cheongmicheon watershed using SSP2-4.5 Australian Community Climate Earth System Simulator-coupled model (ACCESS-CM2) addition Representative Concentration Pathway (RCP) 4.5 ACCESS 1-3 same institute. The...
This study assesses the influence of climate change on rainfall and drought in Benut River Basin (BRB) to support integrated management Machap dam. The seeks reshape dam safety components near future through a technical focus group discussion (FGD) with key stakeholders. Utilizing Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 6 (CMIP6) dataset for immediate (2020-2040) under various scenarios (SSP1-2.6, SSP2-4.5, SSP3-7.0, SSP5-8.5), historical Climate Hazards Group InfraRed Precipitation...
