Statistical behavior of temporally compounding multi-peak flood events

http://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1088/1748-9326/add0c8

Published: May 6, 2025 23:00

Floods are the most frequent natural hazard globally (2003–2023) and rank second in economic losses, according to EM-DAT, the International Disaster Database. When flood events occur in close succession, they pose significant challenges for emergency…

Heat stress induced by irrigation over the US Great Plains and related uncertainties

http://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1088/1748-9326/add029

Published: May 6, 2025 23:00

Irrigation plays a crucial role in agricultural production across the US Great Plains. Meanwhile, it is a key driver of local and regional climate due to its influence on energy and water exchange between land surface and atmosphere. Despite the…

Projections of climate change-attributable diarrhea burden: a systematic review

http://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1088/1748-9326/adccd8

Published: May 6, 2025 23:00

Significant progress has been made to reduce diarrhea burden globally, but climate change threatens these gains. Several reviews have explored historic associations between meteorological factors and diarrheal diseases, but none have evaluated the…

Impacts on compound drought heatwave events in Australia per global warming level

http://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1088/1748-9326/adc8bd

Published: May 6, 2025 23:00

Droughts and heatwaves are amongst the most frequent hazards in Australia. They cause severe impacts to society and the environment, and the magnitude of impacts increase when they are compounded- occurring simultaneously or sequentially. Using CMIP6…

Differences and similarities in Indian monsoon response to aerosols and to land-use/land-cover change

http://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1088/1748-9326/adcc43

Published: May 6, 2025 23:00

Aerosols are known to exert a powerful influence on the Indian summer monsoon, reducing precipitation from onset through demise. We analyze model simulations aimed at detection and attribution to compare and contrast the processes that affect the energy…

Recent increase in snow cover as a contributing driver to autumn cooling in central Eurasia

http://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1088/1748-9326/add02a

Published: May 6, 2025 23:00

In the context of global warming, autumn air temperatures in central Eurasia have exhibited a cooling trend over the past two decades. However, the extent to which snow cover contributes to the cooling remains unclear. This study reveals that despite a…

Accelerated propagation from meteorological to hydrological drought under diminishing snow

http://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1088/1748-9326/adccdc

Published: May 5, 2025 23:00

Understanding the spatial-temporal evolution of drought propagation is crucial for improving our monitoring and prediction of droughts. However, the impact of changing snow dynamics on drought propagation time (tP) has rarely been assessed. Utilizing…

Carbon removal, mitigation deterrence and the politics of target separation. Evidence from the EU 2040 climate target negotiation

http://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1088/1748-9326/add0c9

Published: May 5, 2025 23:00

The ongoing integration of novel carbon dioxide removal (CDR) methods into climate policy has raised concerns that expectations of CDR may delay or undermine emission reduction efforts—a risk discussed as mitigation deterrence. Separating targets for…

Extreme heat impacts on daily life and adaptive behaviours captured through lived experience

http://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1088/1748-9326/adcbc5

Published: May 5, 2025 23:00

So far, there has been little evidence of the impact of extreme heat on behaviour and wellbeing in daily life, beyond gross health metrics like hospital admissions and mortality. Data are needed to better understand the relative impact of a changing…

Arctic sea-ice decline causes intense summer monsoon precipitation events over South Asia under greenhouse warming

http://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1088/1748-9326/add0ca

Published: May 5, 2025 23:00

Arctic sea-ice decline has been accelerating under greenhouse warming. In this study, we investigate the tropical precipitation response to declining Arctic sea-ice using observations and climate model simulations. Observational evidence and idealized…
