The Forecast of Economic Welfare and Food Security of Iran under Climate Changes*
Food security and economic welfare strongly depend on agricultural production, the loss of this production can be a serious challenge for food security and economic welfare. Agricultural production is also influenced by environmental and climatic factors so that the variations of climatic parameters can trigger extensive fluctuations in agricultural production. This study classifies climate cha...
متن کاملModeling the discharge of rivers in selected watersheds of Guilan province during climate change
In this essay, we investigated the effects of climate change on the rivers of selected basins of Guilan province, one of the northern provinces of Iran for the period 2020 to 2050 under three climate scenarios: RCP2.6, RCP4.5, RCP8.5. For this purpose, rainfall and temperature data from 45 climate data stations and 20 hydrometric stations from 1983 to 2013 were used. The average precipitatio...
متن کاملAnalysis of Extreme Temperature Change Trend under Future Scenarios in order to Assess Climate Fluctuations (Case Study: Sanandaj and Saghez Synoptic Stations)
Climate change is a phenomenon that has affected natural ecosystems and all aspects of human life in recent years. Therefore, identifying and predicting climate change can greatly help manage it and reduce its harmful effects. The purpose of the present study is to identify whether or not occurrence of climate change by extreme indices including TXx and TNn during 1961-2015. In addition, CanESM...
متن کاملEconomic Impacts of Climatic Changes on Some Vegetable Crops in Egypt
This study was carried out to assess the economic impacts of climate change on some major vegetable crops (potato, tomato and green bean) in Egypt and to predict the production, intended cultivated area and water requirements under increasing population annual growth rate of 2.07% with and without climate change during the period of 2025s2100s according to SRES A and B scenarios. The statistica...
متن کاملAssessment of climatic parameters caused by climate change: A case study Kan Basin
Water resources restrictions along with uneven distribution of water in different parts of Iran, have caused Iran to be highly vulnerable to climate change impacts. During recent years, IPCC has developed GHG emission scenarios which can be used with AOGCMs to predict climatic status for the future. Herein this research, Hadcm3 was used to simulate climatic parameters for three different period...
