Climate, Volume 11, Issue 4

April 2023 - 17 articles

Cover Story: Changing precipitation and temperatures are magnified on small islands with limited water reservoirs and direct runoff discharge to valuable coral-reef resources. Guam’s climate change study addresses the importance of climate change adaptation, mitigation, and resilience studies for Guam to buffer these impacts. The temperature trend analysis results indicate that Guam’s climate is getting warmer year by year. The values of the seasonal maximum of Tmax are 0.036 °C/year from January to July and 0.025 °C/year from August to December. Statistically significant trends in total rainfall amount are detected during the wet season. Strong increasing trends in rainfall amounts and occurrences are observed. Heavy rainfall brings various hydrological and environmental issues such as floods, soil erosion, sediments, and stormwater quantity and quality. View this paper
