Disentangling the effects of climate change and reoligotrophication on primary production in a large lake

Alfred Johny Wüest, Hugo Nicolás Ulloa Sánchez, Shubham Krishna

Climate change and reduction in nutrient loads have significant effects on primary production and phytoplankton growth dynamics. Since in the last few decades in many regions, nutrients in lakes were reduced simultaneously as the climate changed. Yet, it r ...

Glacier loss and vegetation expansion alter organic and inorganic carbon dynamics in high-mountain streams

Tom Ian Battin, Nicola Deluigi, Andrew Lean Robison, Camille Aude Rolland

High-mountain ecosystems are experiencing the acute effects of climate change, most visibly through glacier recession and the greening of theterrestrial environment. The streams draining these landscapes are affected by these shifts, integrating hydrologic ...

Action Levers towards Sustainable Wellbeing: Re-Thinking Negative Emissions, Sufficiency, Deliberative Democracy

Sascha Nick

Systems theory defines leverage points as places to intervene in order to change a system. Points with high impact on system behavior are notoriously hard to act upon, and indeed most policy intervention is based at the lowest level (#12 in Donella Meadows ...

Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) in the Transition to Net-Zero Emissions: Collective Implementation and Distributional Impacts

Marc Vielle, Sigit Pria Perdana

As an instrument to minimize carbon leakage, the effects and feasibility of Carbon Border Adjustments Mechanism (CBAM) will depend on multiple design options. While the EU has committed to introducing CBAM as part of its green climate deal, pursuing climat ...

Barriers to the implementation of international agreements on the ground: Climate change and resilience building in the Araucanía Region of Chile

Silvia Hostettler, Nicola Mary Banwell

Implementing disaster risk reduction (DRR), climate change adaptation and mitigation (CCA/M), and sustainable development are key to increasing community resilience to pressing climate change risks. Barriers to grassroots implementation of national and int ...

Microphysics of Snowfall Over Coastal East Antarctica Simulated by Polar WRF and Observed by Radar

Alexis Berne, Nikola Besic, Etienne Gabriel Henri Vignon, Josué Etienne Gehring, Nicolas Jean François Jullien

The current assessment of the Antarctic surface mass balance mostly relies on reanalysis products or climate model simulations. However, little is known about the ability of models to reliably represent the microphysical processes governing the precipitati ...

Analyzing Large-Scale Public Campaigns on Twitter

Karl Aberer, Philippe Cudré-Mauroux, Julia Proskurnia, Roman Prokofyev

Social media has become an important instrument for running various types of public campaigns and mobilizing people. Yet, the dynamics of public campaigns on social networking platforms still remain largely unexplored. In this paper, we present an in-depth ...

Factors controlling variability in the oxidative capacity of the troposphere since the Last Glacial Maximum

Jed Oliver Kaplan, Mirjam Pfeiffer

The oxidative capacity of past atmospheres is highly uncertain. We present here a new climate-biosphere-chemistry modeling framework to determine oxidant levels in the present and past troposphere. We use the GEOS-Chem chemical transport model driven by me ...

Recent warming in Greenland in a long-term instrumental (1881-2012) climatic context: I. Evaluation of surface air temperature records

Konrad Steffen

We present an updated analysis of monthly means of daily mean, minimum and maximum surface air temperature (SAT) data from Greenland coastal weather stations and from a long-running site on the Greenland ice sheet, and analyse these data for evidence of cl ...

Modeling study of the interannual variability in global tropospheric hydroxyl radical and methane concentrations over the last two decades

Jérôme Drevet

Methane (CH4) is a major greenhouse gas whose global warming potential is 23 times more important than carbon dioxide (CO2). CH4 concentrations have steadily increased since the beginning of the industrial era, reaching an unprecedent level (almost 1800 pp ...
