Climate-induced migration has emerged as a major concern in India and Bangladesh, due to their geographical vulnerability and socioeconomic conditions. Coastal areas, such as the Sundarbans and the Ganges–Brahmaputra Delta, face relentless thre...
Flood risk mapping is spreading in the Global South due to the availability of high-resolution/high-frequency satellite imagery, volunteered geographic information, and hydraulic models. However, these maps are increasingly generated without the part...
This study presents a comprehensive framework for evaluating urban heat resilience, incorporating urban climatology models, their characteristics, and simulation programs. Utilizing the local climate zone (LCZ) classification method, this research ex...
Efficient and sustainable water management measures are required on Mediterranean islands due to water shortages, which are exacerbated by climatic variability and increased tourist traffic. This study uses a multi-criteria decision analysis (MCDA) a...
Efforts to address anthropogenic climate change have been focused sensibly on mitigation and adaptation. However, given the difficulties in the implementation of a rapid global mitigation process, increasing attention is being given to geoengineering...
Extreme heat, a leading cause of weather-related morbidity and mortality, particularly affects vulnerable populations such as older people, increasing their risk of stroke. There is a gap between scientific knowledge and policy implementation, partic...
The North American Monsoon (NAM) in southern Arizona continues to be a topic of interest to many ecologists studying the triggers and characteristics of plant growth and reproduction in relation to the onset of the monsoon. The purpose of this articl...
Natural disaster events caused by extreme precipitation have far-reaching and widespread impacts on society, the economy, and ecosystems. However, understanding the long-term trends of extreme precipitation indices and their spatiotemporal correlatio...
The long instrumental series of precipitation in Pisa, the earliest one in Italy, has been reconstructed after the careful recovery and critical analysis of its history, data, and metadata. Precipitation amounts have been recovered from May 1707 to D...
In this study, a prediction model was developed that considers the rainfall characteristics and damage characteristics of heavy rainfall disasters in Korea using machine learning models. Considering the damage characteristics of heavy rainfall disast...
(1) Background: This study investigated seasonal variations in particulate matter (PM) ratios (PM1/PM2.5, PM2.5/PM10, and PM1/PM10) and their relationship with the meteorological conditions in Rio Grande, Brazil. (2) Methods: PM1, PM2.5, and PM10 lev...
Regular meteorological observations in Padua started in 1725 and have continued unbroken up to the present, making the series one of the longest in the world. Daily mean temperatures and precipitation amounts have recently been homogenized for the en...
Effective climate change communication is central to public engagement, self-efficacy, and support for mitigation and adaptation policies. Yet, communicators face numerous challenges, such as misinformation, climate despair, and the complexity of cli...
Rapid urbanization and climate impacts have raised concerns about the emergence and aggravation of urban heat island effects. In Africa, studies have focused more on big cities due to their growing populations and high climate impact, while mid-sized...
The study of the effects of climate change and air pollution on human health is an interesting topic for wellbeing projects in urban areas. We present a method for highlighting how adverse weather and environmental conditions affect human health and...
The ongoing and projected future climate change impacts the heating, cooling, and air-conditioning sectors both directly and indirectly. The consideration of heating, cooling, and energy degree-days is a consistent, robust, and widely used approach f...
Extreme climate events are increasing in severity and frequency and affecting the livelihood of pastoralists. Understanding these impacts is crucial for developing effective management strategies. Thus, this study examines the effects of drought on l...
