Phylogenetic and functional diversity are equally important drivers of community completeness in the secondary succession of Pinus yunnanensis forest
Community completeness in Pinus yunnanensis forests follows a hump-shaped pattern along secondary succession, peaking at the 60-year stage. • Phylogenetic community structure shifts from overdispersion in mid-successional stages to clustering in the late stage (80-year). • Phylogenetic diversity and functional diversity are identified as the primary and equally important drivers of community completeness. • The decline in community completeness a…
Needs and uses of scientific information for earthquake and monsoon contingency planning by humanitarian clusters in Nepal
Embedding scientific knowledge in policy and practice is crucial for effective disaster risk reduction and planning, but key barriers remain in using science effectively for these purposes. In countries like Nepal, subjected to frequent multi-hazards like earthquakes and landslides, science is acutely needed but not always utilized for risk planning. Here we explore the current uses and requirements for science-based risk information in earthquak…
Picking winners in strategic emerging industries using government subsidies in China
This study explores the effects of government subsidies on company labour productivity in strategic emerging industries under conditions of market power in downstream and upstream markets. A sample of 1392 listed companies from emerging industries in China from 2006 to 2019 is used. Labour productivity will be lower in companies with high seller power. The positive effect of subsidies on labour productivity will be enhanced when firms possess hig…
Closure to “Revisiting Basic Wind Speed of Metro Cities of India”
Rapid attribution of the record-breaking heatwave event in North China in June 2023 and future risks
A record-breaking heatwave event occurred in North China from 22 to 24 June 2023, with temperatures >40 °C at many meteorological stations. This marked the first time that Beijing had reached or exceeded 40 °C for three consecutive days. However, the extent to which such exceptional heatwave events are related to anthropogenic climate change remains unclear. It is also unclear how frequent and intense such strong heatwave events will be in the fu…
Effects of Nonstationarity of Extreme Wind Speeds and Ground Snow Loads in a Future Canadian Changing Climate
Modern structural design codes assume a statistically stationary climate. However, it is now known that the climate is changing at a rate that calls into question the stationarity assumption. This study was undertaken to explore various methods of accounting for climate nonstationarity. The geographical domain of this study covers most of Canada, intending to explore how best to update future climatic variables in the National Building Code of Ca…
Impact of Annual Maximum Wind Speed in Mixed Wind Climates on Wind Hazard for Mainland China
The coastal region in mainland China is prone to typhoon winds. However, a systematic analysis of the annual maximum wind speed analysis for typhoon and nontyphoon winds (i.e., mixed wind climate) using the wind records has not been reported for the region. The wind hazard modeling and analysis for mainland China was carried out in the present study by using wind records from 839 meteorological stations and considering mixed wind climates. The id…
Revisiting Basic Wind Speed of Metro Cities of India
An accurate prediction of design wind speed is critical to the estimation of wind loads on any earth-bound civil engineering structure. Concerns have been raised within the Indian design community concerning the precision of design wind speeds as well as the new formulation of the importance factor for cyclonic regions in the current Indian Wind Loading Standard. The current study investigates the extreme wind climate of India by carrying out an …
Learning from the 2018 heatwave in the context of climate change
To understand whether high temperatures and temperature extremes are important for climate change adaptation in Scotland, we place the 2018 heatwave in the context of past, present, and future climate, and provide a rapid but comprehensive impact analysis. The observed hottest day (d), 5 d, and 30 d period of 2018 and the 5 d period with the warmest nights had return periods of 5–15 years for 1950–2018. The warmest night and the maximum 30 d aver…
Coupling of El Niño events and long-term warming leads to pervasive climate extremes in the terrestrial tropics
The El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO) is a major driver of seasonal and interannual climatic variability across the tropics. The 2015/16 El Niño event was one of the strongest El Niño events of the past century. Here we characterize the meteorological impacts of the 2015/16 El Niño event upon the terrestrial tropics, and place the severity of this event into context of previous strong events in 1982/83 and 1997/98. Strong drought-inducing meteo…
A pan-South-America assessment of avoided exposure to dangerous extreme precipitation by limiting to 1.5 °C warming
This study investigates the future changes in dangerous extreme precipitation event in South America, using the multi-model ensemble simulations from the HAPPI experiments. The risks of dangerous extreme precipitation events occurrence, and changes in area and population exposure are quantified. Our results show that the likelihood of dangerous extreme precipitation increases in large parts of South America under future warming; changes in extrem…
Attributing human influence on the July 2017 Chinese heatwave
On21–25 July 2017 a record-breaking heatwave occurred in Central Eastern China, affecting nearly half of the national population and causing severe impacts on public health, agriculture and infrastructure. Here, we compare attribution results from twoUKMet Office Hadley Centre models, HadGEM3-GA6 and weather@home (HadAM3P driving 50 kmHadRM3P). Within HadGEM3-GA6 July 2017-like heatwaves were unequaled in the ensemble representing the world witho…
Attribution of extreme rainfall from Hurricane Harvey, August 2017
During August 25-30, 2017, Hurricane Harvey stalled over Texas and caused extreme precipitation, particularly over Houston and the surrounding area on August 26-28. This resulted in extensive flooding with over 80 fatalities and large economic costs. It was an extremely rare event: the return period of the highest observed three-day precipitation amount, 1043.4 mm 3dy -1 at Baytown, is more than 9000 years (97.5% one-sided confidence interval) an…
Evaluation of luminescence-dating procedures applied to late-Holocene colluvium near St Paul's Mission, Natal, South Africa
Colluvial deposits provide an interesting challenge for luminescence-dating techniques because of the short and varied light-exposure histories of the grains prior to deposition. Results of thermoluminescence (TL) and infrared stimulated luminescence (IRSL) measurements are presented for two stacked colluvial deposits from Natal. A radiocarbon date for bulk organic matter in the A horizon of the soil formed within the surface of the lower unit pr…
