Divergent responses of permafrost degradation to precipitation increases at different seasons on the eastern Qinghai–Tibet Plateau based on modeling approach
The Qinghai–Tibet Plateau (QTP) has responded to remarkable climate warming with dramatic permafrost degradation over the past few decades. Previous studies have mostly focused on permafrost responses to rising air temperature, while the effects of accompanying increases in precipitation remain contentious and largely unknown. In this study, a distributed process-based model was applied to quantify the impacts of increased precipitation on permaf…
Seasonal characteristics and spatio-temporal variations of the extreme precipitation-air temperature relationship across China
It is assumed that extreme precipitation (P) increases with air temperature (T) by a scaling rate close to 7%/°C without moisture limitation according to the Clausius-Clapeyron (C-C) relationship. However, the spatial distribution of the P-T relationship in China is subject to divergent conclusions including both sub-C-C ( 7%/°C) scaling with reasons yet to be examined. Based on the long-term observations, here we show that P-T relationships with…
Streamflow stationarity in a changing world
Whether river flows remain stationary is of great concern to hydrologists, water engineers, and society in general, yet is subject to substantial debate. Here we provide the first comprehensive assessment of the long-term stationarity of annual streamflow for 11 069 catchments globally. Our observation-based evidence shows that the long-term annual streamflow remains stationary in 79% of catchments with minimal human disturbance, indicating that …
Why scale is vital to plan optimal Nature-Based Solutions for resilient cities
A need for multi-functional assessment tools evaluating trade-offs and co-benefits for various types of Nature-Based Solutions (NBS) has been increasingly identified in recent years. Methodologically, concepts for a tool are presented which include quantifying the demand and potential for NBS to enhance ecosystem service (ES) provision, and linking ESs to readily quantifiable and legislatively-relevant environmental quality indicators (EQIs). The…
Linkage between anomalies of pre-summer thawing of frozen soil over the Tibetan Plateau and summer precipitation in East Asia
The Tibetan Plateau (TP) is sensitive to climate change in the land–atmosphere coupling mechanism due to its complex topographic features and unique geographic location. This study explored the teleconnection between pre-summer thawing of frozen soil over the TP and summer precipitation in East Asia in the Meiyu–Baiu rainy season (June, July) from 1981 to 2019 using maximum covariance analysis (MCA). The precipitation fields forced by thawing of …
Changing the retention properties of catchments and their influence on runoff under climate change
Many studies on drought consider precipitation and potential evapotranspiration (PET) impacts. However, catchment water retention is a factor affecting the interception of precipitation and slowing down runoff which also plays a critical role in determining the risks of hydrological drought. The Budyko framework links retention to the partitioning of precipitation into runoff or evapotranspiration. Applied worldwide, we demonstrate that retention…
