Climate change

The objective of the study is to evaluate the impact of projected changes in monsoon rainfall anomalies due to global warming on agricultural yield in India.

This study aims to identify the causes of damage to roads and bridges; plan effective climate change adaptation measures; introduce innovative technologies suitable for adaptation; and strengthen the capacity of engineers to oversee infrastructures.

Their update accounts for the effects of overlooked physical properties in ice.

A trio of physicists and oceanologists has found via the CESM1 climate model that an extreme El Niño tipping point could be reached in the coming decades under current emissions.

New Monash research has untangled the influence of regional climate drivers, on the Antarctic Ice Sheet. Snow accumulation and surface melting are two important processes that are key to predicting how Antarctica will contribute to future sea level rise.

Climate change exacerbated weather hazards and health risks, driving the need for climate-resilient health systems. Effective adaptation strategies, innovative technologies, and sustainable financing are essential for safeguarding vulnerable populations.

The novel contribution of this study is in offering explanations of how local institutions facilitate or create barriers against innovation and implementation of climate adaptation technologies.

Only one-third of Small island developing states have multi-hazard early warning systems, which can detect a range of potential disasters. As a result, people in small island developing states are 15 times more likely to die from climate disasters.
