Seasonal versus transient snow and the elevation dependence of climate sensitivity in maritime mountainous regions
[1] In maritime mountainous regions, the phase of winter precipitation is elevation dependent, and in watersheds receiving both rain and snow, hydrologic impacts of climate change are less straightforward than in snowmelt‐dominated systems. Here, 29 Pacific Northwest watersheds illustrate how distribution of seasonal snow, transient snow, and winter rain mediates sensitivity to 20th century war...
متن کاملChanges in water consumption linked to heavy news media coverage of extreme climatic events
Public awareness of water- and drought-related issues is an important yet relatively unexplored component of water use behavior. To examine this relationship, we first quantified news media coverage of drought in California from 2005 to 2015, a period with two distinct droughts; the later drought received unprecedentedly high media coverage, whereas the earlier drought did not, as the United St...
متن کاملWill Extreme Climatic Events Facilitate Biological Invasions?
© The Ecological Society of America www.frontiersinecology.org E are experiencing not only gradual shifts in mean climate conditions but also dramatic changes in climate variability and prevalence of extreme climatic events (ECEs). ECEs such as droughts, floods, severe storms, and heat waves are changing in frequency, magnitude, timing, and duration, depending on the region and the specific cli...
متن کاملExtreme climatic events shape arid and semiarid ecosystems
tally a climatic and oceanographic phenomenon, but it has profound effects on terrestrial ecosystems as well. Although the ecological effects of ENSO are becoming increasingly known from a wide range of terrestrial ecosystems (Holmgren et al. 2001; Wright 2005), their impacts have been most intensively studied in arid and semiarid systems. Because inter-annual variability in precipitation is su...
متن کاملseasonal sensitivity analysis for climatic variables of asce-penman-monteith model in a semi-arid climate
seasonal variations of climatic parameters are significant in arid and semi-arid regions and sensitivity of each parameter may differ in different seasons. no work has been done in this regard in iran. therefore, in this study, sensitivity analysis of the asce-penman-monteith grass reference evapotranspiration (eto) equation was investigated on the basis of variation of mean air temperature (tm...
