Therefore,integrated interdisciplinary modelling has become a major focus of ecosystem service assessment. In this study, we established a model that integrates land use/cover change(LUCC), climate change, and water retention services to evaluate the spatial and temporal variations of water retention services in the Loess Plateau of China in the historical period(2000–2015) and in the future(2020–2050). An improved Markov-Cellular Automata(Markov-CA) model was used to simulate land use/land cover patterns, and ArcGIS 10.2 software was used to simulate and assess water retention services from 2000 to 2050 under six combined scenarios, including three land use/land cover scenarios(historical scenario(HS), ecological protection scenario(EPS), and urban expansion scenario(UES)) and two climate change scenarios(RCP4.5 and RCP8.5, where RCP is the representative concentration pathway). LUCCs in the historical period(2000–2015) and in the future(2020–2050) are dominated by transformations among agricultural land, urban land and grassland. Urban land under UES increased significantly by 0.63×10^(3) km^(2)/a, which was higher than the increase of urban land under HS and EPS. In the Loess Plateau, water yield decreased by 17.20×10^(6) mm and water retention increased by 0.09×10^(6) mm in the historical period(2000–2015),especially in the Interior drainage zone and its surrounding areas. In the future(2020–2050), the pixel means of water yield is higher under RCP4.5 scenario(96.63 mm) than under RCP8.5 scenario(95.46mm), and the pixel means of water retention is higher under RCP4.5 scenario(1.95 mm) than under RCP8.5 scenario(1.38 mm). RCP4.5-EPS shows the highest total water retention capacity on the plateau scale among the six combined scenarios, with the value of 1.27×10^(6) mm. Ecological restoration projects in the Loess P展开更多

Fuzzy TOPSIS which is a kind of multi-criteria decision making techniques was introduced to reflect the uncertainty of input data and criteria weighting values. Representative concentration pathway 8.5 scenario was included into the hydrologic simulations for the climate change impact to hydrologic regimes using hydrological simulation program-Fortran (HSPF). Furthermore, all year scenarios were considered to determine the rankings, respectively. It can take into consideration the uncertainty of time periods which always exists in all climate change scenarios. This study can be a baseline to start to combine the fuzzy multi-criteria decision making techniques with robust prioritization for climate change adaptation strategies.展开更多

The spatial distribution of the annual mean NWS over China is better captured by BCC-CSM1.1 m than by BCC-CSM1.1 due to the finer resolution. The weakened NWS over China during 1961–2005 cannot be reproduced by BCC-CSM1.1, whereas BCC-CSM1.1 m is able to simulate the decreasing trend of the autumn NWS in North China, although the magnitude is about 1/3 of the observed value.This is attributed to the better performance of this finer-resolution model in reproducing the increase in sea level pressure over Mongolia and North China over the past 45 years. The results suggest that increasing the horizontal resolution of the BCC-CSM model has improved its ability in reproducing the spatial distribution and long-term changes of NWS over China. Future projections by BCC-CSM1.1 m under different Representative Concentration Pathway(RCP) scenarios demonstrate that the autumn NWS in North China will decrease during the 21 st century under both the middle(RCP4.5) and high(RCP8.5) emission scenarios, with a higher decreasing rate under RCP8.5.展开更多
文摘Afghanistan has faced extreme climatic crises such as drought,rising temperature,and scarce precipitation,and these crises will likely worsen in the future.Reduction in crop yield can affect food security in Afghanistan,where the majority of population and economy are completely dependent on agriculture.This study assessed the interaction between climate change and crop yield in Kabul of Afghanistan during the reference(1990–2020)and future(2025–2100)periods.Climate data(1990–2020)were collected from four meteorological stations and three local organizations,and wheat yield data(1990–2020)were acquired from the United States Agriculture Department.Data during the reference period(1990–2020)were used for the validation and calibration of the statistical downscaling models such as the Statistical Downscaling Model(SDSM)and Long Ashton Research Station Weather Generator(LARS-WG).Furthermore,the auto-regression model was used for trend analysis.The results showed that an increase in the average annual temperature of 2.15℃,2.89℃,and 4.13℃will lead to a reduction in the wheat yield of 9.14%,10.20%,and 12.00%under Representative Concentration Pathway(RCP)2.6,RCP4.5,and RCP8.5 during the future period(2025–2100),respectively.Moreover,an increase in the annual maximum temperature of 1.79℃,2.48℃,and 3.74℃also causes a significant reduction in the wheat yield of 2.60%,3.60%,and 10.50%under RCP2.6,RCP4.5,and RCP8.5,respectively.Furthermore,an increase in the annual minimum temperature of 2.98℃,2.23℃,and 4.30℃can result in an increase in the wheat yield of 6.50%,4.80%,and 9.30%under RCP2.6,RCP4.5,and RCP8.5,respectively.According to the SDSM,the decrease of the average monthly precipitation of 4.34%,4.10%,and 5.13%results in a decrease in the wheat yield of 2.60%,2.36%,and 3.18%under RCP2.6,RCP4.5,and RCP8.5,respectively.This study suggests that adaptation strategies can be applied to minimize the consequences of climate change on agricultural production.

文摘Comprehensive assessments of ecosystem services in environments under the influences of human activities and climate change are critical for sustainable regional ecosystem management. Therefore,integrated interdisciplinary modelling has become a major focus of ecosystem service assessment. In this study, we established a model that integrates land use/cover change(LUCC), climate change, and water retention services to evaluate the spatial and temporal variations of water retention services in the Loess Plateau of China in the historical period(2000–2015) and in the future(2020–2050). An improved Markov-Cellular Automata(Markov-CA) model was used to simulate land use/land cover patterns, and ArcGIS 10.2 software was used to simulate and assess water retention services from 2000 to 2050 under six combined scenarios, including three land use/land cover scenarios(historical scenario(HS), ecological protection scenario(EPS), and urban expansion scenario(UES)) and two climate change scenarios(RCP4.5 and RCP8.5, where RCP is the representative concentration pathway). LUCCs in the historical period(2000–2015) and in the future(2020–2050) are dominated by transformations among agricultural land, urban land and grassland. Urban land under UES increased significantly by 0.63×10^(3) km^(2)/a, which was higher than the increase of urban land under HS and EPS. In the Loess Plateau, water yield decreased by 17.20×10^(6) mm and water retention increased by 0.09×10^(6) mm in the historical period(2000–2015),especially in the Interior drainage zone and its surrounding areas. In the future(2020–2050), the pixel means of water yield is higher under RCP4.5 scenario(96.63 mm) than under RCP8.5 scenario(95.46mm), and the pixel means of water retention is higher under RCP4.5 scenario(1.95 mm) than under RCP8.5 scenario(1.38 mm).

文摘The 30-60-day intraseasonal oscillation(ISO) and 10-20-day ISO are two dominant oscillation modes over the western North Pacific during boreal summer.With daily data derived from eight CMIP5 models,changes of the ISO intensities are projected under the 1.5 and 2.0℃ global warming levels under the Representative Concentration Pathway(RCP) 4.5 and RCP8.5 scenarios.Most of the models agree that the ISO intensities increase along a belt region from the south Indochina Peninsula(ICP) to the east to the Philippines.The variation pattern shows little difference between different warming levels or scenarios.Results indicate that the spatial distribution of ISO anomalies is related with the variation of background fields.Enriched lower-level humidity and moist static energy favor the intensity increases of ISOs,which are projected to be larger over the whole western North Pacific,with the most conspicuous changes located over the east to the Philippines for humidity but over the south of the ICP for moist static energy.In contrast,the ISOs over the west to Indonesia and northeast to the Philippines decrease,which is consistent with the local descending motions.

文摘Drought is projected to become more frequent and increasingly severe under climate change in many agriculturally important areas.However,few studies have assessed and mapped the future global crop drought risk—defined as the occurrence probability and likelihood of yield losses from drought—at high resolution.With support of the GEPIC-Vulnerability-Risk model,we propose an analytical framework to quantify and map the future global-scale maize drought risk at a 0.5°resolution.In this framework,the model can be calibrated and validated using datasets from in situ observations(for example,yield statistics,losses caused by drought)and the literature.Water stress and drought risk under climate change can then be simulated.To evaluate the applicability of the framework,a global-scale assessment of maize drought risk under 1.5℃warming was conducted.At 1.5℃warming,the maize drought risk is projected to be regionally variable(high in the midlatitudes and low in the tropics and subtropics),with only a minor negative(-0.93%)impact on global maize yield.The results are consistent with previous studies of drought impacts on maize yield of major agricultural countries around the world.Therefore,the framework can act as a practical tool for global-scale,future-oriented crop drought risk assessment,and the results provide theoretical support for adaptive planning strategies for drought.
文摘21世纪平流层气候变化主要由两个因素所决定,一个是臭氧层恢复造成的变暖,另一个是温室气体增加造成的变冷。针对在这两种相反的辐射效应作用下,平流层气温如何变化这一重要问题,使用CMIP5未来情景模拟试验的结果,对2006—2100年间的平流层温度的变化趋势进行分析。结果表明,臭氧恢复的增温效应在平流层低层起主导作用,而温室气体增加的冷却效应在平流层高层起主导作用,因此,平流层低层(70 h Pa以下)呈变暖趋势,而平流层中高层呈变冷趋势。通过对包含完整平流层的气候模式(高顶模式)和只包含部分平流层的气候模式(低顶模式)预估的温度趋势的差异进行分析,发现高顶模式预估的变暖趋势大于低顶模式的结果,这意味着模式是否包含完整平流层有可能对预估的平流层和对流层未来气候变化有重要影响。
文摘为了探明气候变化对长江中下游地区冬小麦潜在产量的影响,基于政府间气候变化专门委员会(IPCC)AR5提出的BCCCSM1-1(Beijing Climate Center Climate System Model version1-1)气候系统模式输出的基于典型浓度RCP各情景(基准时段baseline、RCP 2.6、RCP 4.5和RCP 8.5)主要气象要素的逐日模拟数据和历史观测数据。通过DSSAT模型模拟历史时期(2001—2009年)冬小麦的物候期和产量,并计算模拟数据与实测数据二者的均方根误差和一致性指数(开花、成熟期和产量模拟结果的相对均方差根误差分别在0.83%—2.98%之间和7%以下,符合度D均接近于1)明确最优遗传参数,应用最优参数模拟加以验证,完成模型参数区域化。结合历史阶段(1961—1990年)和未来时期(2021—2050年)主要气象要素变化趋势,利用DSSAT模型模拟分析未来30年长江中下游地区气候变化对小麦产量的影响及变化趋势,以期为未来作物生产提供理论依据。结果表明,DSSAT-CERES-Wheat品种遗传参数本地化后能准确模拟冬小麦的生长发育过程及产量潜力。较基准年相比,2021—2050年RCP情景下,冬小麦生育期内≥10℃积温除RCP 2.6情景外呈现逐渐增加趋势,增加幅度为RCP 8.5>RCP 2.6>RCP 4.5;降水量年际波动都比较大,区域性差异明显;太阳总辐射量较基准年均有所降低,但降低的幅度随着年份的增加逐渐减小,变化率均呈现显著或极显著的增加趋势。除昆山外冬小麦开花期、成熟期较基准年均有所提前,开花期到成熟期天数则随之缩短。仅考虑气候条件时,长江中下游地区冬小麦产量潜力与基准年减少,昆山、英山下降幅度较滁州、钟祥大(3%—59%),且区域差异明显。分析可得,一定范围内冬小麦产量随积温的增加逐渐增加,超过一定阈值时则逐渐减少,其他气候因子增加或减少并不能弥补积温过低产生的负效应。
文摘为探明典型浓度路径下(高端路径RCP8.5和稳定路径RCP4.5)长江中下游地区未来30a平均气温的时空变化趋势和分布特征,运用联合国政府间气候变化委员会(IPCC)AR5提出的模拟能力较强的BCC-CSM1-1(Beijing Climate Center Climate System Model version1-1)气候系统模式,基于典型浓度情景RCP(Representative Concentration Pathway)输出的2021-2050年0.5×0.5格点主要气象要素的逐日模式模拟数据资料,应用双线性内插法降尺度到长江中下游及邻近区域62个基本气象站点。以1961-1990为基准年,根据同期等长模拟数据和观测数据的非线性函数关系建立订正模型,并利用方差订正法对2021-2050年模拟数据进行误差订正。结果表明:RCP情景输出数据的模拟效果良好,方差订正可降低模拟值与观测值的相对误差和方差,更加真实反应未来气候变化趋势。RCP8.5和RCP4.5两种排放情景下,长江中下游地区2021-2050年年平均气温均呈显著上升趋势,增温幅度总体表现为自南向北逐渐减少。就季节而言,四季均呈现升温趋势,夏季增温幅度最高,变化倾向率大,春冬两季RCP8.5情景下增温幅度大于RCP4.5下,夏秋季则相反;RCP8.5情景下,研究区域年平均气温呈现自中部向东西递减,春夏季增温幅度高于秋季,冬季增温幅度最小,且变化倾向率低,大部分地区未通过0.05水平的显著性检验。RCP4.5情景下,研究区年平均气温自北向南逐渐降低,变化倾向率则表现为北部大于南部,夏季变化速率较大,增温幅度达1.2℃·10a^(-1)(P<0.01),冬季较小且未通过显著性检验。

文摘We evaluated the ability of the Beijing Climate Center models on different horizontal resolutions(BCC-CSM1.1 on approximately 280-km resolution and BCC-CSM1.1 m on approximately 110-km resolution) in simulating the nearsurface wind speeds(NWS) in China during 1961–2005. The spatial distribution of the annual mean NWS over China is better captured by BCC-CSM1.1 m than by BCC-CSM1.1 due to the finer resolution. The weakened NWS over China during 1961–2005 cannot be reproduced by BCC-CSM1.1, whereas BCC-CSM1.1 m is able to simulate the decreasing trend of the autumn NWS in North China, although the magnitude is about 1/3 of the observed value.This is attributed to the better performance of this finer-resolution model in reproducing the increase in sea level pressure over Mongolia and North China over the past 45 years. The results suggest that increasing the horizontal resolution of the BCC-CSM model has improved its ability in reproducing the spatial distribution and long-term changes of NWS over China. Future projections by BCC-CSM1.1 m under different Representative Concentration Pathway(RCP) scenarios demonstrate that the autumn NWS in North China will decrease during the 21 st century under both the middle(RCP4.5) and high(RCP8.5) emission scenarios, with a higher decreasing rate under RCP8.5.
