We use a physically-based water and energy balance model to simulate natural snow accumulation at 247 winter recreation locations across the continental United States. combine this with projections of snowmaking conditions determine downhill skiing, cross-country snowmobiling season lengths under baseline future climates, using data from five climate models two emissions scenarios. Projected are combined estimates activity, entrance fee information, potential changes in population monetize...
This study analyzes the potential impacts of changes in temperature due to climate change on U.S. power sector, measuring energy, environmental, and economic system under two emissions trajectories—with without mitigation. It estimates impact heating cooling degree days, electricity demand, generating unit output efficiency. These effects are then integrated into a dispatch capacity planning model estimate investment decisions, emissions, costs, prices for 32 regions. Without mitigation...
Assessments of surface urban heat island (UHI) have focused on using remote sensing and land cover data to quantify UHI intensity spatial distribution within a certain time period by including information. In this study, we implemented prototype approach characterize the spatiotemporal variations series Landsat temperature products annual change We analyzed in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, north-central United States found that mean region was as large 2.2°C during 1986–2017 with an increasing...
The goal of this study is to reframe the analysis and discussion extreme heat projections improve communication future risks in United States. We combine existing data from 31 Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 5 models examine exposure for global average temperatures 1.5, 2, 3, 4 °C above a preindustrial baseline. find that throughout States, historically rare events become increasingly common as rise depiction depends large part on whether defined by absolute or relative metrics....
Background: This paper represents, to our knowledge, the first national-level (United States) estimate of economic impacts vibriosis cases as exacerbated by climate change. Vibriosis is an illness contracted through food- and waterborne exposures various Vibrio species (e.g., nonV. cholerae O1 O139 serotypes) found in estuarine marine environments, including within aquatic life, such shellfish finfish. Objectives: The objective this study was project climate-induced changes associated United...
Observational evidence shows marine species are shifting their geographic distribution in response to warming ocean temperatures. These shifts have implications for the US fisheries and seafood consumers. The analysis presented here employs a two-stage inverse demand model estimate consumer welfare impacts of projected increases or decreases commercial landings 16 from 2021 2100, based on predicted changes thermally available habitat. analyzed together account 56% current fishing revenues....
Characterizing the future risks of climate change is a key goal impacts analysis. Temperature binning provides framework for analyzing sector-specific by degree warming as an alternative or complement to traditional scenario-based approaches in order improve communication results, comparability between studies, and flexibility facilitate scenario In this study, we estimate damages nine impact sectors within contiguous United States (US) using downscaled projections from six global models, at...
The brick kiln industrial sector in South Asia accounts for large amounts of short-lived climate forcer (SLCF) emissions, namely black carbon (BC), organic (OC), and sulfur dioxide (SO2; the precursor to atmospheric sulfate [SO4]). These SLCFs are air pollutants have important impacts on both human health Arctic, a region currently experiencing more than double rate warming relative global average. Using previously derived Arctic equilibrium temperature response factors, we estimate...
Abstract Climate change is expected to impact individuals’ recreation choices, as changing temperatures and precipitation patterns influence participation in outdoor alternative activities. This paper empirically investigates the relationship between weather using nationally representative data from contiguous United States. We find that across most activities, lowest on coldest days [<35°F (1.7°C)] highest at moderately high [80°–90°F (27°–32°C)]. Notable exceptions this trend include...
Climate change projections have been the primary informational currency for exploring impacts of climate and thus informing how to prepare adapt those projected impacts. However, indicators, which we define as observed trends, conditions, often associated with socioeconomic consequences, can also be helpful in motivating or shaping adaptation actions. In this paper, explore use indicators decision-making through three detailed case studies. We find that play an important sometimes...
Volume II of the Fourth National Climate Assessment (NCA4) - Impacts, Risks, and Adaptation in United States evaluates risks American society faces as a result climate change highlights actions underway across country to address those risks. NCA4 Vol. communicates what means for communities country, focusing on impacts affecting things places we value. The report also elevates visibility successful adaptation throughout ten regions (including, first time, U.S. Caribbean), with hope that...
Abstract The use of residential heating devices is a key source black carbon and other short‐lived climate forcer emissions in Arctic high‐latitude regions, with important impacts to the human health. types combustion technologies fuels used vary by region, which emission profiles these pollutants thus magnitude responses. Using inventory data from 14 European countries, we derive wood‐fueled carbon, organic sulfate six appliance 2016. previously derived equilibrium temperature responses,...
