adaptation of global climate change projections for local level application: case study, special forest ecosystem, astara

چکیده
during recent years, a series of climate projections provided for surface temperature increase and precipitation changes over the next century in various time slices. national institutes are using downscaling projections for more precise results. in this research study, various climate change projections in global, continental, regional and local scales have been examined in special forest ecosystem in astara. to study past climate conditions, main climatic factors namely temperature and precipitation as well as relative humidity and wind were considered. downscaling climate projections in national and local scales have some agreement and disagreement with available global, continental and regional projections. according to all reports in different scales temperature of astara region, in last half century has been increased. in the longer future time period, the study area will face with higher values of increasing temperature. according to the scenario a1b (2090-2099) in the winter, western part of hyrcanian forest including astara will experience 10% increment of precipitation and in the summer 20% decrement of precipitation. this is in agreement with central asia sub-region projection and in disagreement with west asia sub-region projection. for the future projection of precipitation in astara area, there are no significant differences between global, central asia sub-region, middle east, national and local downscaling projections.

هدف اصلی نرخ گذاری بیمه ای تعیین نرخ عادلانه و منطقی از دیدگاه بیمه گر و بیمه گذار است. تعین نرخ یکی از مهم ترین مسایلی است که شرکتهای بیمه با آن روبرو هستند، زیرا تعیین نرخ اصلی ترین عامل در رقابت بین شرکتها است. برای تعیین حق بیمه ابتدا می باید مقدار مورد انتظار ادعای خسارت برای هر قرارداد بیمه را برآورد کرد. روش عمومی مدل سازی خسارتهای عملیاتی در نظر گرفتن تواتر و شدت خسارتها می باشد. اگر شر...
15 صفحه اولAdaptation of forest trees to climate change
There is an urgent need to determine the adaptive potential of forest trees given their importance in ecosystem functioning and the associated ecological and economic services they provide. Indeed, underestimating rapid adaptation could lead to unnecessary recommendations such as the use of non-native (and perhaps non-adapted) genetic material for reforestation. Overestimating adaptive potentia...
متن کاملADAPTATION OF FORESTS AND PEOPLE TO CLIMATE CHANGE – A Global Assessment Report Prepared by the Global Forest Expert Panel on Adaptation of Forests to Climate Change
Climate is a critical factor affecting forest ecosystems and their capacity to produce goods and services. This chapter reviews published studies of climate-forest relationships with emphasis on indications and mechanisms of change during recent decades. Effects of climate change on forests depend on ecosystem-specific factors including human activities, natural processes, and several dimension...
متن کاملPotential climate change impacts on temperate forest ecosystem processes
Large changes in atmospheric CO2, temperature, and precipitation are predicted by 2100, yet the long-term consequences for carbon (C), water, and nitrogen (N) cycling in forests are poorly understood. We applied the PnET-CN ecosystem model to compare the long-term effects of changing climate and atmospheric CO2 on productivity, evapotranspiration, runoff, and net nitrogen mineralization in curr...
متن کاملGlobal Climate Change Adaptation Priorities for Biodiversity and Food Security
International policy is placing increasing emphasis on adaptation to climate change, including the allocation of new funds to assist adaptation efforts. Climate change adaptation funding may be most effective where it meets integrated goals, but global geographic priorities based on multiple development and ecological criteria are not well characterized. Here we show that human and natural adap...
