Zone-specific vegetation dynamics and impact on surface urban heat island intensity in Chinese cities
Trajectories of family functioning and financial toxicity in patients with glioma: A longitudinal study
Objective This study aims to investigate the longitudinal trajectories of family functioning and financial toxicity in glioma patients, while examining their predictive interrelationships, to establish evidence-based strategies for alleviating economic burden in neuro-oncology care. Methods This prospective longitudinal cohort study enrolled 266 glioma patients from the Second Affiliated Hospital of Xuzhou Medical University and Xuzhou Central Ho…
Summertime compound heat wave and drought events in China: Interregional and subseasonal characteristics, and the associated driving factors
This study investigates the characteristics of compound heat wave and drought events (CHDEs) across various subregions of China from 1961 to 2022 by utilizing a monthly probability-based index. The results uncover significant interregional and subseasonal variations. The trend analysis of CHDEs reveals statistically significant increases in most regions of China; however, there is no significant trend in the JiangHuai region throughout the entire…
Future drought overestimations due to no constraints of CO 2 physiological effect and land-atmosphere coupling on potential evapotranspiration
Various offline drought indices have been widely used to project dryness/wetness and drought changes. However, the results derived from these indices often differ from or even contradict observations and direct projections made by coupled climate models. Therefore, it is crucial to investigate this scientific debate thoroughly and identify the potential causes. This study adopts a water demand-side perspective, focusing on potential evapotranspir…
Significant influence of winter Pacific-North American pattern on spring vegetation in mid-high latitude Asia
Given that the vegetation over mid-high latitude Asia (MHA) has been more variable in recent years, it is necessary to better understand the physical causes of vegetation variations in this region. Based on the normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI), this study reveals a close linkage of the variability of spring (April–May) vegetation in MHA to the winter (December–January–February) Pacific-North American (PNA) pattern. When the winter PN…
Different responses of surface air temperature over Eurasia in early and late winter to the autumn Kara–Laptev Sea ice
The Arctic climate is changing rapidly, along with intensified melting of sea ice, which has significant impacts on surface air temperature (SAT) in Eurasia. This study reveals that the subseasonal response of SAT to the autumn Kara–Laptev Sea ice (KLSIC) differs significantly between early and late winter. The response of SAT to KLSIC forms a warm Arctic–cold Eurasia pattern in early winter. Conversely, the negative anomaly response of SAT to KL…
CMIP6 near-term and long-term projections of Eurasian winter cooling trend and cold extremes
It is well-known that climate warming increases air temperature and reduces cold extremes in the long-term. But internal variability strongly modulates the variability of temperature at mid- and- high latitudes, for example, causing the remarkable cooling and severe winter weather over Eurasia from the 1990s to the early 2010s. It remains unclear whether the occurrence of Eurasian cooling and cold extremes will be offset by climate warming or sti…
Characteristics and mechanisms of the severe compound cold-wet event in southern China during February 2022
A severe compound cold-wet event occurred in southern China (hereafter referred to as CWESC ) in February 2022, leading to enormous socioeconomic losses. In this study, we proposed a new index to denote the severity of the compound cold-wet event. Based on the multivariate survival method, the CWESC in February 2022 is identified as the severest event during the past six decades. Our results indicate that the CWESC in 2022 is jointly regulated by…
Variability of spring ecosystem water use efficiency in Northeast Asia and its linkage to the Polar-Eurasia pattern
Given that water use efficiency (WUE) is an important indicator to measure the trade-off between carbon uptake and water consumption within the ecosystem, better understanding the variation of ecosystem WUE and related driving factors is of great interest. In this study, the variability of spring ecosystem WUE in Northeast Asia (NEA) was investigated. The results show that its primary mode exhibits a monosign variation. This mode is directly cont…
Substantial increase in daytime-nighttime compound heat waves and associated population exposure in China projected by the CMIP6 multimodel ensemble
This paper presents the projected changes in daytime-nighttime compound heat waves (HWs) (i.e. concurrent occurrence of HWs both in daytime and nighttime) and associated population exposure in China under the shared socioeconomic pathway (SSP)2-4.5 and SSP5-8.5 scenarios based on the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project phase 6 simulations. A comparison with the changes in daytime HWs (i.e. occurring only in daytime) or nighttime HWs (i.e. occur…
