Climate and land use change impacts on global terrestrial ecosystems and river flows in the HadGEM2-ES Earth system model using the representative concentration pathways
A new generation of an Earth system model now includes a number of land-surface processes directly relevant to analyzing potential impacts of climate change. This model, HadGEM2-ES, allows us to assess the impacts of climate change, multiple interactions, and feedbacks as the model is run. This paper discusses the results of centuryscale HadGEM2-ES simulations from an impacts perspective – spec...

climate change can have severe effects on the natural environment, including water resources and ecosystems. Islands are unique systems more vulnerable to climate change than continental areas. madeira, an atlantic subtropical island, has a quite unique flora and fauna and is considered a mediterranean biodiversity ‘hot-spot’. The lower altitudes of madeira are predominantly occupied by urban a...
متن کاملQuantifying the relative importance of land cover change from climate and land use in the representative concentration pathways
Climate change is projected to cause substantial alterations in vegetation distribution, but these have been given little attention in comparison to land use in the Representative Concentration Pathway (RCP) scenarios. Here we assess the climate-induced land cover changes (CILCC) in the RCPs and compare them to land use land cover change (LULCC). To do this, we use an ensemble of simulations wi...

the objective of this study is to investigate of climate change in gorgan river-gharesoo basin and these impacts of this phenomenon on regional land use change, as well as provide guidance on the effective management and conservation of natural land area. analysis of climate data including rainfall, average temperature and relative humidity of nine synoptic stations in this area from east to we...
متن کاملClimate Variability Impacts on Land Use and Livelihoods in Drylands
This edited volume is devoted to the examination of the implications of the inevitable changes wrought by global change on the welfare and livelihoods of tens of millions of people who live in dryland regions. Global change is more than just climate change and the ramifications of changing trade patterns (geopolitical and economic aspects), the shift to the market economy, demographic factors (...
