Dryland hydroclimatic response to large tropical volcanic eruptions during the last millennium npj Clim. Atmos. Sci. (IF 9.0) Pub Date : 2024-04-05 Shangrong Zhou, Fei Liu, Aiguo Dai, Tianbao Zhao
Drylands are highly vulnerable to climate change due to their fragile ecosystems and limited ability to adapt. In contrast to the global drying after tropical volcanic eruptions shown previously, we demonstrate that large tropical volcanic eruptions can induce significant two-year hydroclimatic wetting over drylands by employing the last millennium simulations. During this wetting period, which extends

Acceleration of daily land temperature extremes and correlations with surface energy fluxes npj Clim. Atmos. Sci. (IF 9.0) Pub Date : 2024-04-04 Chris Huntingford, Peter M. Cox, Paul D. L. Ritchie, Joseph J. Clarke, Isobel M. Parry, Mark S. Williamson
Assessment of climate reanalysis data for land (ECMWF Re-Analysis v5; ERA5-Land) covering the last seven decades reveals regions where extreme daily mean temperatures are rising faster than the average rate of temperature rise of the 6 months of highest background warmth. However, such extreme temperature acceleration is very heterogeneous, occurring only in some places including regions of Europe

Hemispheric asymmetric response of tropical cyclones to CO2 emission reduction npj Clim. Atmos. Sci. (IF 9.0) Pub Date : 2024-04-01 Chao Liu, Soon-Il An, Jiuwei Zhao, Seok-Woo Son, Fei-Fei Jin, Ruifen Zhan
Tropical cyclones (TCs) are among the most devastating natural hazards for coastal regions, and their response to human activities has broad socio-economic relevance. So far, how TC responds to climate change mitigation remains unknown, complicating the design of adaptation policies. Using net-zero and negative carbon emission experiments, we reveal a robust hemisphere-asymmetric hysteretic TC response

Drought risk threatens pastoralism in rangelands, which are already under strain from climatic and socioeconomic changes. We examine the future drought risk (2031–2060 and 2071–2100) to rangeland productivity across Eurasia (West, Central, and East Asia) using a well-tested process-based ecosystem model and projections of five climate models under three shared socioeconomic pathway (SSP) scenarios
