Increasing Risk of Ecological Change to Major Rivers of the World With Global Warming (2021)
Journal Article
The hydrological characteristics of a river, including the magnitude and timing of high and low flows, are important determinants of its ecological functioning. Climate change will alter these characteristics, triggering ecological changes in river e... Read More about Increasing Risk of Ecological Change to Major Rivers of the World With Global Warming.
Intergenerational inequities in exposure to climate extremes (2021)
Journal Article
Under continued global warming, extreme events such as heat waves will continue to rise in frequency, intensity, duration, and spatial extent over the next decades (1–4). Younger generations are therefore expected to face more such events across thei... Read More about Intergenerational inequities in exposure to climate extremes.
Validity of estimating flood and drought characteristics under equilibrium climates from transient simulations (2021)
Journal Article
Future flood and drought risks have been predicted to transition from moderate to high levels at global warmings of 1.5°C and 2.0°C above pre-industrial levels, respectively. However, these results were obtained by approximating the equilibrium clima...

A quantitative evaluation of the issue of drought definition: A source of disagreement in future drought assessments (2021)
Journal Article
Droughts are anticipated to intensify in many parts of the world due to climate change. However, the issue of drought definition, namely the diversity of drought indices, makes it difficult to compare drought assessments. This issue is widely known,...

Effects of climate change on combined labour productivity and supply: an empirical, multi-model study (2021)
Journal Article
Background: Although effects on labour is one of the most tangible and attributable climate impact, our quantification of these effects is insufficient and based on weak methodologies. Partly, this gap is due to the inability to resolve different imp... Read More about Effects of climate change on combined labour productivity and supply: an empirical, multi-model study.
Understanding each other’s models: an introduction and a standard representation of 16 global water models to support intercomparison, improvement, and communication (2021)
Journal Article
Global water models (GWMs) simulate the terrestrial water cycle on the global scale and are used to assess the impacts of climate change on freshwater systems. GWMs are developed within different modelling frameworks and consider different underlying...

Journal Article
Globally observed trends in mean and extreme river flow attributed to climate change (2021)
Journal Article
Anthropogenic climate change is expected to affect global river flow. Here, we analyze time series of low, mean, and high river flows from 7250 observatories around the world covering the years 1971 to 2010. We identify spatially complex trend patter...

Uncertainty of simulated groundwater recharge at different global warming levels: A global-scale multi-model ensemble study (2021)
Journal Article
Billions of people rely on groundwater as being an accessible source of drinking water and for irrigation, especially in times of drought. Its importance will likely increase with a changing climate. It is still unclear, however, how climate change w... Read More about Uncertainty of simulated groundwater recharge at different global warming levels: A global-scale multi-model ensemble study.

International perceptions of urban blue-green infrastructure: A comparison across four cities (2021)
Journal Article
© 2021 by the authors. Licensee MDPI, Basel, Switzerland. Blue-Green infrastructure (BGI) is recognised internationally as an approach for managing urban water challenges while enhancing society and the environment through the provision of multiple c...

Global terrestrial water storage and drought severity under climate change (2021)
Journal Article
Terrestrial water storage (TWS) modulates the hydrological cycle and is a key determinant of water availability and an indicator of drought. While historical TWS variations have been increasingly studied, future changes in TWS and the linkages to dro...
