ICON‐O: The Ocean Component of the ICON Earth System Model—Global Simulation Characteristics and Local Telescoping Capability
(
- Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems
, 2022-10-06)
We describe the ocean general circulation model Icosahedral Nonhydrostatic Weather and Climate Model (ICON‐O) of the Max Planck Institute for Meteorology, which forms the ocean‐sea ice component of the Earth system model ...
Surface Wave and Roller Dissipation Observed With Shore‐Based Doppler Marine Radar
(
- Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans
, 2022-08-24)
Surface wave energy and dissipation are observed across the surf zone. Utilizing the concept of surface rollers, a new scaling is introduced to obtain the energy flux and dissipation related to rollers from Doppler velocities ...
GNSS mobile road dam surveying for TanDEM-X correction to improve the database for floodwater modeling in northern Namibia
(
- Environmental Earth Sciences
, 2020-06-28)
The aim of this study is the improvement of the TanDEM-X elevation model for future floodwater modeling by implementing surveyed road dams and the use of filter algorithms. Modern satellite systems like TanDEM-X deliver ...
What drives relocation policies in the Maldives?
(
- Climatic Change
, 2020-11-20)
The predominant responses to rising sea levels are in situ adaptations. However, increasing rates of sea-level rise will render ex situ adaptations—in the form of relocations—inevitable in some low-lying coastal zones. ...
Comparison of two model calibration approaches and their influence on future projections under climate change in the Upper Indus Basin
(
- Climatic Change
, 2020-11-10)
This study performs a comparison of two model calibration/validation approaches and their influence on future hydrological projections under climate change by employing two climate scenarios (RCP2.6 and 8.5) projected by ...
How evaluation of hydrological models influences results of climate impact assessment—an editorial
(
- Climatic Change
, 2020-12-07)
This paper introduces the Special Issue (SI) “How evaluation of hydrological models influences results of climate impact assessment.” The main objectives were as follows: (a) to test a comprehensive model calibration/validation ...
Effects of model calibration on hydrological and water resources management simulations under climate change in a semi-arid watershed
(
- Climatic Change
, 2020-11-18)
Semi-arid regions are known for erratic precipitation patterns with significant effects on the hydrological cycle and water resources availability. High temporal and spatial variation in precipitation causes large variability ...
The other side of sea level change
(
- Communications Earth & Environment
, 2020-12-23)
Water levels in inland seas and lakes globally will drop, often dramatically, over the 21st century in response to climate change. Based on the case of the Caspian Sea, we argue for a concerted campaign to raise awareness ...
Vulnerability assessment of flash floods in Wadi Dahab Basin, Egypt
(
- Environmental Earth Sciences
, 2020-02-28)
Floods are considered one of the most severe natural disasters worldwide. They impact vast areas, particularly in arid/semi-arid regions, causing serious damages with thousands of human casualties and billions of Euros in ...
The unconquerable country: the Babylonian marshes in the Neo-Assyrian sources
(
- Water History
, 2020-04-20)
The Assyrians ruled in the first half of the first millennium BCE over most part of the Ancient Near East. The Neo-Assyrian Empire was constructed on the base of a powerful, well organized and trained army, which defeated ...
