Crosato, A. (author), Grissetti-Vázquez, A. (author), Bregoli, F. (author), Franca, M.J. (author)Climate change has a direct influence on both hydrology and floodplain vegetation of water courses, which are key players in river morphodynamics. The river system response to climate change is complex and the effects of non-linear interactions between alterations in water, sediment and vegetation remain incompletely understood. Which of...journal article 2022

Hooimeijer, F.L. (author), Bricker, J.D. (author), Ke, Q. (author), Bortolotti, A. (author), van der Heuvel, Jasper (author), Diaz, Andres (author)Mean sea level rise (SLR) could increase up to 2m by 2100, which would see damage caused by coastal flooding in Europe increase from €1.25bn per annum currently to €961bn in just over 80 years. Urban areas situated along the North Sea coastline are particularly vulnerable to extreme sea level rise (a combination of SLR, tide and storm surges)....journal article 2022

Moghim, Sanaz (author), Teuling, Adriaan J. (author), Uijlenhoet, R. (author)Globally, the impacts of climate change can vary across different regions. This study uses a probability framework to evaluate recent historical (1976–2016) and near-future projected (until 2049) climate change across Europe using Climate Research Unit and ensemble climate model datasets (under RCPs 2.6 and 8.5). A historical assessment shows...journal article 2022

Hermans, T.H.J. (author), Katsman, C.A. (author), Machado Lima de Camargo, C. (author), Garner, Gregory G. (author), Kopp, Robert E. (author), Slangen, Aimée B.A. (author)Projections of relative sea level change (RSLC) are commonly reported at an annual mean basis. The seasonality of RSLC is often not considered, even though it may modulate the impacts of annual mean RSLC. Here, we study seasonal differences in twenty-first-century ocean dynamic sea level change (DSLC; 2081–2100 minus 1995–2014) on the...journal article 2022

(author), Feng, Ming (author), Babcock, Russell C. (author)Positive feedbacks driving habitat-forming species recovery and population growth are often lost as ecosystems degrade. For such systems, identifying mechanisms that limit the re-establishment of critical positive feedbacks is key to facilitating recovery. Theory predicts the primary drivers limiting system recovery shift from biological to...journal article 2022

Suresh Iyer, A. (author)Moral support with AI has been gaining traction. The proponents of moral support with AI claim that some of the more problematic behavioural patterns of humans can be resolved with the help of AI, such as inability to extend moral concern to global level problems like climate change and refugee crisis. They offer a variety of ways of doing so-...conference paper 2022

Those regions can be identified by algorithmic Climate Change Functions (aCCFs) for nitrogen oxides (NOx), water vapour (H2O) as well as contrail cirrus, which provide a measure of...journal article 2022

This participatory case study of North Macedonia quantifies synergies and trade-offs. Our results show twelve times more synergies than trade...journal article 2022
