Under anticipated future warming, the Greenland ice sheet (GrIS) will pass a threshold when meltwater runoff exceeds accumulation of snow, resulting in negative surface mass balance (SMB < 0) and sustained loss. Here, we dynamically statistically downscale outputs an Earth system model to 1 km resolution infer that near-surface atmospheric warming 4.5 ± 0.3°C—relative preindustrial—is required ...

This study quantifies current and potential future changes in transpiration, evaporation, interception loss and river discharge in response to land use change, irrigation and climate change, by performing several distinct simulations within the consistent hydrology and biosphere modeling framework LPJmL (Lund-Potsdam-Jena managed Land). We distinguished two irrigation simulations: a water limit...

The study examined the influence of expanded perlite aggregates (EPA) on mortar properties and whether EPA could replace sand to produce that meets compressive strength requirement ASTM Type M mortar. involved fabricating mortars wherein was substituted by volumes 20%, 40%, 60%, 80%, 100% with three types (EPA A, B, Coarse). Results showed EPA-mortars can meet 17.2 MPa. sample attained its grea...

Abstract. Sulfate geoengineering (SG) methods based on lower stratospheric tropical injection of sulfur dioxide (SO2) have been widely discussed in recent years, focusing the direct and indirect effects they would climate system. Here a potential alternative method is discussed, where emissions are located at surface or troposphere form carbonyl sulfide (COS) gas. There two time-dependent chemi...

Abstract This study evaluated the individual as well integrated impacts of climate and land use change on streamflow over Meenachil River Basin, Kerala, India. The hydrological model SWAT was used to simulate future simulations under representative concentration pathway (RCP) 4.5 8.5 scenarios for medium term (2025–2055) long (2056–2086). cover projected using modeler (LCM) TerrSet software per...

Quantifying the impact of climate change on spatial and temporal hydrological processes is important for integrated water resource management. This study aimed to investigate impacts variability streamflow evapotranspiration in Lake Tana basin, Ethiopia. Climate data was simulated using Weather Research Forecasting (WRF) model, with a 4-km horizontal resolution. Dynamically downscaled baseline ...

The pandemic scenario caused by Covid-19 generated negative impacts. has made it clear that our daily lives depend to a high degree on access energy. Therefore, now more than ever, is necessary promote new activities such as local food production, but also energy capture. This article an attempt expose and quantify the benefits of renewable transition in Ecuador post post-oil. generation, consu...

Computing grids must deliver non-trivial qualities of service, in terms of response time, security, reliability, and coordination of various grid resources. Grid meta-schedulers play a crucial role into the execution of applications, because they match grid application jobs with available grid resources. However, a typical grid application is not an isolated single grid job, but a composition o...
