Increases in summer humidity are a basic threat to human survival, because the body cannot shed heat by sweating if absolute humidity is too high. However, climate change[...]

Extreme scenarios of global warming out to 2300 from the SSP5-8.5 extension scenario are analyzed in three state-of-the-art climate models, including two models with clim[...]

Subcritical: Third Culture Field Notes explores an innovative, interdisciplinary collaboration between scientists and artists. Based on a project funded by the National S[...]

Weathering is a foundational process in most Earth systems, but there has been a lack of data directly quantifying what influences mechanical weathering. Here we use mult[...]

Abstract: Earth System Models’ complex land components simulate a patchwork of increases and decreases in surface water availability when driven by projected future clima[...]

Predicting how increasing atmospheric CO2 will affect the hydro-logic cycle is of utmost importance for a range of applications rang-ing from ecological services to human[...]

Recent studies have found that terrestrial dryness indices like the Palmer Drought Severity Index (PDSI), Standardized Precipitation Evapotranspiration Index (SPEI), and [...]

Future flood risk assessment has primarily focused on heavy rainfall as the main driver, with the assumption that projected increases in extreme rain events will lead to [...]

The electric power system plays an integral part in the well-being of the modern society. Because of climate change, the ageing power system infrastructure is under threa[...]
