  • Relevance of surface albedo to forestry policy in high latitude and altitude regions may be overvalued

    Open AccessRyan M Bright, Nicolás Cattaneo et al.ARTICLEEnvironmental Research Letters2024

    Forest restoration and improved forest management are seen as options to enhance terrestrial carbon dioxide removal in many regions, yet concerns surrounding their potentially adverse surface albedo impacts exist, particularly in high latitude and altitude regions. Such concerns are often based on generalized conclusions rooted in analyses carried out over broad spatial extents at coarse resolutions. The impacts of surface albedo change are highl…

  • Decision Support Indicators (DSIs) and their role in hydrological planning

    Open AccessJohanna Sörensen, Johanna Lykke Sörensen et al.ARTICLEEnvironmental Science & Policy2024References: 2

    Decision Support Indicators (DSIs) are metrics designed to inform local and regional stakeholders about the characteristics of a predicted (or ongoing) event to facilitate decision-making. In this paper, the DSI concept was developed to clarify the different aims of different kinds of indicators by naming them, and a framework was developed to describe and support the usage of such DSIs. The framework includes three kinds of DSI: hydroclimatic DS…

  • Worldwide evaluation of mean and extreme runoff from six global-scale hydrological models that account for human impacts

    Open AccessJamal Zaherpour, Simon N Gosling et al.ARTICLEEnvironmental Research Letters2018

    Global-scale hydrological models are routinely used to assess water scarcity, flood hazards and droughts worldwide. Recent efforts to incorporate anthropogenic activities in these models have enabled more realistic comparisons with observations. Here we evaluate simulations from an ensemble of six models participating in the second phase of the Inter-Sectoral Impact Model Inter-comparison Project (ISIMIP2a). We simulate monthly runoff in 40 catch…

  • Intercomparison of regional-scale hydrological models and climate change impacts projected for 12 large river basins worldwide—a synthesis

    Open AccessValentina Krysanova, Tobias Vetter et al.ARTICLEEnvironmental Research Letters2017

    An intercomparison of climate change impacts projected by nine regional-scale hydrological models for 12 large river basins on all continents was performed, and sources of uncertainty were quantified in the framework of the ISIMIP project. The models ECOMAG, HBV, HYMOD, HYPE, mHM, SWAT, SWIM, VIC and WaterGAP3 were applied in the following basins: Rhine and Tagus in Europe, Niger and Blue Nile in Africa, Ganges, Lena, Upper Yellow and Upper Yangt…

  • Global water resources affected by human interventions and climate change

    Open AccessIngjerd Haddeland, Jens Heinke et al.ARTICLEProceedings of the National…2014

    Significance Humans alter the water cycle by constructing dams and through water withdrawals. Climate change is expected to additionally affect water supply and demand. Here, model analyses of climate change and direct human impacts on the terrestrial water cycle are presented. The results indicate that the impact of man-made reservoirs and water withdrawals on the long-term global terrestrial water balance is small. However, in some river basins…

  • Multimodel assessment of water scarcity under climate change

    Open AccessJacob Schewe, Jens Heinke et al.ARTICLEProceedings of the National…2014

    Water scarcity severely impairs food security and economic prosperity in many countries today. Expected future population changes will, in many countries as well as globally, increase the pressure on available water resources. On the supply side, renewable water resources will be affected by projected changes in precipitation patterns, temperature, and other climate variables. Here we use a large ensemble of global hydrological models (GHMs) forc…

  • Constraints and potentials of future irrigation water availability on agricultural production under climate change

    Open AccessJoshua Elliott, Delphine Deryng et al.ARTICLEProceedings of the National…2014

    Significance Freshwater availability is relevant to almost all socioeconomic and environmental impacts of climate and demographic change and their implications for sustainability. We compare ensembles of water supply and demand projections driven by ensemble output from five global climate models. Our results suggest reasons for concern. Direct climate impacts to maize, soybean, wheat, and rice involve losses of 400–2,600 Pcal (8–43% of present-d…

  • Impact of climate change on renewable groundwater resources

    Open AccessFelix T Portmann, Peter Doll et al.ARTICLEEnvironmental Research Letters2013

    Reduction of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions to minimize climate change requires very significant societal effort. To motivate this effort, it is important to clarify the benefits of avoided emissions. To this end, we analysed the impact of four emissions scenarios on future renewable groundwater resources, which range from 1600 GtCO2 during the 21st century (RCP2.6) to 7300 GtCO2 (RCP8.5). Climate modelling uncertainty was taken into account by a…
