Abstract The Antarctic Peninsula (AP) experienced a new extreme warm event and record-high surface melt in February 2022, rivaling the recent temperature records from 2015 2020, contributing to alarming series of events over this region showing stronger warming compared rest Antarctica. Here, drivers impacts are analyzed detail using range observational modeling data. northern/northwestern AP was directly impacted by an intense atmospheric river (AR) attaining category 3 on AR scale, which...
Abstract The Year of Polar Prediction in the Southern Hemisphere (YOPP-SH) held seven targeted observing periods (TOPs) during 2022 austral winter to enhance atmospheric predictability over Ocean and Antarctica. TOPs 5–10-day duration each featured release additional radiosonde balloons, more than doubling routine sounding program at 24 participating stations run by 14 nations, together with process-oriented observations selected sites. These extra data are evaluated for their impact on...
The article presents the results of study thermal periods in Ukraine, namely its second part, which concerns duration and dates beginning end growing season, is determined by persistent transition average daily air temperature through value 5 °C. Climatic characteristics season determine agricultural work, as well a number other activities that are carried out, for example, forestry farms. methods determining climatic this were similar to those used first where changes warm period analyzed...
In Ukraine, the consequences of climate change are exacerbated by military aggression Russian Federation (RF) not only in temporarily occupied territories but also for entire country, since all resources primarily directed at strengthening defense capabilities and confronting enemy. Nevertheless, has stopped rather intensified recent years. At same time, due to massive targeted shelling RF, almost generating capacities thermal power plants Ukraine have been destroyed, largest hydroelectric...
Agriculture in Ukraine is one of the most important economic sectors which has an impact on global food security with over 600 million people dependent export crops from Ukraine. It became even more obvious after Russia's full-scale invasion and blockage Ukrainian seaports that triggered a crisis 2022. In last year 2024, reached level USD 24.5 billion exported 78.3 tonnes agricultural products according to Ministry Agrarian Policy Food Ukraine, accounted for 59% total exports. At same time,...
The Interactive Climate Atlas of Change serves as a pivotal application tool designed to empower practitioners and policy-makers in Ukraine by providing dynamic, user-friendly access crucial climate information. This innovative platform amalgamates scientific data, visualizations, interactive features elucidate the multifaceted impacts change on Ukrainian landscape. atlas not only enhances literacy but also fosters collaborative approach address environmental challenges, thereby enabling...
Objective. This paper deals with an estimation of the climate change at Antarctic Peninsula region. During last decades, most significant warming is observed in Polar regions, particularly region, where Ukrainian Akademik Vernadsky station located. Therefore, providing complex trend important task for These changes are taking place nowadays and will happen future. So, main objective study to estimate characteristics region 21st century, based on calculation relevant indices. The projections...
This paper focuses on the parameters that represent characteristics of clouds and extreme precipitation events over Antarctic Peninsula region, where play a crucial role in regional climate warming, particularly when higher fraction becomes liquid. In this work, we assess cloud properties under change region Representative Concentrations Pathways (RCP) scenarios using model outputs Coordinated Regional Downscaling Experiment for polar regions (Polar CORDEX) 21st century. A similar approach...
<p>Climate change is one of the major challenges for future development in every country including Ukraine where actual warming already has impacted many sectors, population, and ecosystems. Recently, International Initiative Coordinated Downscaling Experiment Europe (Euro-CORDEX) provided RCM data 0.1<sup>o</sup> grid. This detailed projection dataset an excellent basis estimation exposure vulnerability to climate different objects updating...
Abstract The Antarctic Peninsula (AP) experienced a new extreme warm event and record high surface melt in February 2022, rivaling the recent temperature records from 2015 2020, contributing to an alarming series of events there. northern/northwestern AP was directly impacted by intense atmospheric river (AR) bringing anomalous heat rainfall, while AR-enhanced foehn effect further warmed its northeastern side. triggered multiple large-scale circulation patterns linking AR formation tropical...
Objective of the study is an assessment possible climate change in region Antarctic Peninsula from 1986 until end 21st century projected by RCMs' ensemble. During last decades Antarctica has undergone predominantly warming, with highest rate surface air temperature increase found over Peninsula, where Ukrainian Akademik Vernadsky station located. There a unique ecosystem which vulnerable and under growing impact changing weather regime due to rapid changes consequent sea ice, land...
<p>Measurements of precipitation has always had well known difficulties that caused inaccuracies. This is especially acute in Polar regions where prevailing solid accomplished with strong winds. Alternatively some indirect methods measurements still development and numerous meteorological instruments have been created on their basis.</p><p>The Akademik Vernadsky station located the Antarctic Peninsula region a large amount  the problem...
Abstract Climate change impact on water resources has been observed in Ukraine since the end of 20th century. For now, only large-scale climate studies cover Ukraine's territory, having low credibility for a specific catchment. This study aims to calculate future changes river discharge, flow components, and soil within Desna basin evaluate vulnerability trends this basis. The framework assembles process-based SWAT (Soil Water Assessment Tool) model eight high-resolution regional models...
Investigating precipitation phase transitions is crucial for improving our understanding of formation processes and impacts, particularly in Polar Regions. This study uses observational data numerical modelling to investigate the western northern Antarctic Peninsula (AP) during austral summer. The analysis based on ERA5 reanalysis product, dynamically downscaled using Polar-WRF (Polar Weather Research Forecasting) model, evaluated regular meteorological observations additional measurements...
Precipitation detailed characteristics, namely spectrum of particles by their sizes, phase and precipitation intensity with high-resolution timestep, still need to be investigated due the complexity direct instrumental measurements but necessity for improving forecast different applications including hydrological emergency service. Our study is focused on stratiform associated cloud system (Ns-As) warm front during prolonged intense event 25th October 2023 in Kyiv, Ukraine. This was...
West Antarctica and the Antarctic Peninsula are considered to be climate tipping point regions where change processes can cause irreversible impacts. The region has a unique ecosystem, which harmfully affected by these changes. In past decades have from Pacific mid-latitudes specifically atmospheric rivers, accompanied mixed-phase clouds precipitation, lead surface melt on both sides of Peninsula. This study focused intense precipitation events during winter in Southern Hemisphere 2022...
Поточні стрімкі зміни клімату, що відбуваються в масштабі усієї планети, мають найбільший вплив на полярні екосистеми, який відображається пришвидшенні темпів танення льодовиків та, відповідно, опріснення вод прилеглих морських акваторій. Очевидно, будь-яка перебудова кліматичної системи супроводжується певними змінами у великомасштабній атмосферній циркуляції. Конфігурація та інтенсивність циркуляційних процесів межах конкретного регіону має прямий зв’язок і може бути оцінена основі даних...
