We propose a new adaptive spatio-temporal interpolation method that combines either by a step or a line function existing spatial and temporal interpolation methods. We test the new method using climate data obtained from weather stations in Colorado and Nebraska, for the time period from 1993 to 2003. The experimental results show that in mountainous regions our adaptive spatio-temporal method...

Spatially distributed modelling is an important instrument for studying the hydrological cycle, both concerning its present state as well as possible future changes in climate and land use. Results of such simulations are particularly relevant for the fields of water resources, natural hazards and hydropower. The semi-distributed hydrological modelling system PREVAH (PREecipitation-Runoff-EVApo...

Topographic development in mountainous landscapes is a complex interplay between tectonics, climate and denudation. Glaciers erode valleys to generate headwall relief, and hillslope processes control the height and retreat of the peaks. The magnitude-frequency of these landslides and their long-term ability to lower mountains above glaciers is poorly understood; however, small, frequent rockfal...

Most of the issues regarding desertification are always related to soil fertility and water quality [1,2]. Hence United Nation Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) seriously globalized the issues of desertification in 1992. The developed and developing including hilly mountainous countries are the conference of the parties and so as Nepal [3]. The catchments in hill and Himalayan reg...

Aim NARCliM (NSW/ACT Regional Climate Modelling project) is a regional climate modelling project designed to provide regional climate change data for use in impacts and adaptation research across sectors. Method The climate models used were carefully chosen to satisfy the following criteria:  The chosen models perform adequately for the recent past compared to observations.  The chosen models...

the agricultural sector was affected by climate change more than every other sectors, because it is close to nature. in other words, the effects of climate change were been on the farmers’ livelihood. farmers need to entrepreneurial changes for adaptation to climate change in their livelihood. hence, investigation of farmers’ entrepreneurial behavior in response to climate change was the main p...
