Experiencing climate change: revisiting the role of local weather in affecting climate change awareness and related policy preferences
; (Climatic Change, 2021-08-06)
Over the last few years, climate change has risen to the top of the agenda in many Western democracies, backed by a growing share of voters supporting climate protection policies. To understand how and why these changes ... -
Global vulnerability hotspots: differences and agreement between international indicator-based assessments
; ; ; ; ; ; ; (Climatic Change, 2021-11-15)
Climate change impacts and their consequences are determined not only by the intensity and frequency of different climatic hazards but also by the vulnerability of the system, society or community exposed. While general ... -
How evaluation of global hydrological models can help to improve credibility of river discharge projections under climate change
; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; (Climatic Change, 2020-10-12)
Importance of evaluation of global hydrological models (gHMs) before doing climate impact assessment was underlined in several studies. The main objective of this study is to evaluate the performance of six gHMs in simulating ... -
Identifying decision-relevant uncertainties for dynamic adaptive forest management under climate change
; ; ; (Climatic Change, 2020-11-09)
The decision on how to manage a forest under climate change is subject to deep and dynamic uncertainties. The classic approach to analyze this decision adopts a predefined strategy, tests its robustness to uncertainties, ... -
Measurements meet human observations: integrating distinctive ways of knowing in the Pamir Mountains of Tajikistan to assess local climate change
; ; ; ; (Climatic Change, 2021-03-02)
In mountain environments dimensions of climate change are unclear because of limited availability of meteorological stations. However, there is a necessity to assess the scope of local climate change, as the livelihood and ... -
Modellierung der küstennahen Grundwasserversalzung in Niedersachsen abgeleitet aus aeroelektromagnetischen Daten
; ; ; ; ; (Grundwasser, 2021-02-24)
Die Bundesanstalt für Geowissenschaften und Rohstoffe (BGR) führte in den Jahren 2000–2014 umfangreiche (etwa 5900 km2) aerogeophysikalische Erkundungen an der niedersächsischen Nordseeküste durch. Die Aeroelektromagnetik ... -
Natural hazards and climate change are not drivers of disasters
(Natural Hazards, 2021-11-10)
Many nations face challenges in assessing, understanding, and responding to the time-dependent nature of disaster risk. Changes in the intensity of occurrences of extreme events coupled with changes in vulnerability and ... -
Navigating through the jungle of information. Informational self-efficacy predicts climate change-related media exposure, knowledge, and behaviour
; ; (Climatic Change, 2020-11-25)
Climate change is a complex issue and understanding it is not an easy endeavour. An abundance of information is available through media and a lot of research has dealt with the question of how to best communicate this issue ... -

Return to rapid ice loss in Greenland and record loss in 2019 detected by the GRACE-FO satellites
; ; ; ; ; ; ; ; (Communications Earth & Environment, 2020-08-20)
Between 2003-2016, the Greenland ice sheet (GrIS) was one of the largest contributors to sea level rise, as it lost about 255 Gt of ice per year. This mass loss slowed in 2017 and 2018 to about 100 Gt yr−1. Here ... -
