ABSTRACT: The more frequent occurrence of extreme precipitation events (EPE) worldwide has drawn widespread attention, yet EPE in some regions still require a more comprehensive analysis. In this study, we examine spatiotemporal characteristics, periodic oscillations, and population exposure risks associated with EPE in Guangdong, China, from 1961 to 2022. Using highresolution precipitation and…
ABSTRACT: Ice storms and freezing rain events significantly disrupt transportation and power infrastructure, posing serious risks to public safety. This study investigates the environmental conditions conducive to freezing rain and assesses how current climate models simulate these environments. We employ an ensemble precipitation typing approach utilizing three established algorithms (Bourgoui…
ABSTRACT: The study presents a comprehensive analysis of long-term climate trends in Setif, Algeria, a representative semiarid highland station, using a 125-yr dataset (1900-2024) of monthly and annual precipitation and maximum and minimum temperature. Given the discontinuities in the historical dataset, two neighboring reference stations (Batna and Constantine) and three imputation methods wer…
Thinking beyond the science of climate change to the way it is received and responded to, Ruth Morgan shows how climate science has been mobilised in the political sphere, paying particular attention to the North-South dynamics of climate diplomacy. The privileging of climate science and the mobilisation of climate scepticism are explored to consider how they have undermined efforts to remedy t…
Climate Change Adaptation and International Development explores how development aid programs can be restructured to effectively incorporate climate adaptation measures. This scholarly work underscores the urgency of harmonizing development goals with environmental resilience, particularly in regions that are highly susceptible to climate-related challenges. Through multidisciplinary case studi…
Climate Change and the Health of Nations shows how the natural environment has vast direct and indirect repercussions for human health and welfare. McMichael takes us on a tour of human history through the lens of major transformations in climate.
The Rise and Fall of the Carbon Dioxide Theory of Climate Change by Rex J. Fleming challenges the widely accepted notion that carbon dioxide (CO₂) is a primary driver of global warming. The book examines historical climate patterns, including ice ages and interglacial periods, to evaluate the impact of CO₂ on temperature fluctuations. Through an in-depth analysis of 20th-century climate dat…
Managing the Risks of Extreme Events and Disasters to Advance Climate Change Adaptation, a Special Report by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), led by Christopher B. Field and collaborators, examines the connections between extreme weather events, natural disasters, and strategies for climate change adaptation. This extensive report delves into how climate change is intensify…
Climate Change 2001: Mitigation Contribution of Working Group III to the Third Assessment Report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change offers a comprehensive evaluation of mitigation strategies aimed at addressing climate change, as outlined by Working Group III of the IPCC. The book explores scientific findings, technological innovations, and policy approaches required to curb green…
Will it Rain? is a book for agricultural advisers, government planners, students or anyone interested in the weather and seasonal forecasting. It explains the Southern Oscillation and El Ni�o terms often used by the popular media without a full understanding. The book describes: - what causes the weather over Indonesia - the Southern Oscillation and how it influences seasonal weather - …
