Cost-effectiveness analysis of extensive green roofs for urban stormwater control in response to future climate change scenarios

Wen Liu et al.

Summary: Green roofs have significant effects on mitigating urban stormwater and their cost-effectiveness varies under different climate change scenarios. The reduction in runoff volume and peak flow decreases as rainfall intensity increases.

Robust Siting of Permeable Pavement in Highly Urbanized Watersheds Considering Climate Change Using a Combination of Fuzzy-TOPSIS and the VIKOR Method

Seung Taek Chae et al.

Summary: This study used a coupled approach of Fuzzy-TOPSIS and VIKOR to prioritize the best sites for permeable pavement in an urban watershed. The results showed that the priority of permeable pavement was higher in the downstream watershed, indicating the need for more permeable pavement to improve water cycles.

Simulation and Assessment of Projected Climate Change Impacts on Urban Flood Events: Insights From Flooding Characteristic Metrics

Jinjin Hou et al.

Summary: This study focused on the spatial distributions of urban flooding characteristics and their variations in the context of climate change in China. The impacts of climate change on flooding metrics were assessed for two future periods, and the results showed increases in overloaded manholes and total flooding volume. The study provides valuable insights for designing and improving drainage systems, controlling urban flooding, and adapting to climate change.

How May the Choice of Downscaling Techniques and Meteorological Reference Observations Affect Future Hydroclimate Projections?

Deeksha Rastogi et al.

Summary: We present an intercomparison of high-resolution downscaled climate projections based on a six-member GCM ensemble from CMIP6. The downscaled GCMs were generated using both dynamical and statistical downscaling techniques with two meteorological reference observations. We found that dynamical downscaling improves some performance indices, but introduces bias in others, highlighting the need for statistical correction. Downscaled datasets after bias-correction show good agreement with observations. However, the choice of downscaling techniques and reference observations influences the hydroclimate characteristics of the downscaled data.

Assessment of the impact of climate change on urban flooding: a case study of Beijing, China

XingChen Ding et al.

Summary: Global climate change and rapid urbanization increase the risk of urban flooding, especially in China. This study used CMIP6 and SWMM models to quantify the impact of climate change on waterlogging in Beijing for the future 40 years. The results showed that climate change has a significant impact on waterlogging, and low impact development can effectively reduce overflow of the drainage system.

Urbanization and climate change impacts on future flood risk in the Pearl River Delta under shared socioeconomic pathways

Xiaoli Chen et al.

Summary: This study conducted a comprehensive assessment of future flood risk in the Pearl River Delta, showing that climate change and urbanization are expected to exacerbate flood risk in most parts of the region over the next few decades. The results suggest that reducing greenhouse gas emissions may effectively mitigate the flood risk, and flood risk management and preventative actions should be included in regional adaptation strategies.

Impact of antecedent dry-weather period and rainfall magnitude on the performance of low impact development practices in urban flooding and non-point pollution mitigation

Wenyu Yang et al.

Summary: The study found that increasing the length of ADP and rainfall intensity can improve LID performance, but model uncertainty has a greater impact on water quality performance; LID performance is heterogeneously distributed in space and is influenced by ADP length and rainfall intensity.

Insight from CMIP6 SSP-RCP scenarios for future drought characteristics in China

Buda Su et al.

Summary: This study analyzes future drought characteristics over China using four climate models from CMIP6 under seven different scenarios, compared with CMIP5 models to highlight improvements in drought identification. The results show that CMIP6 has a robust capability in capturing historical drought characteristics, with projections of continuous drought in certain regions in the future, and an increase in drought frequency and intensity with higher emissions. The reduced biases in drought characteristics in CMIP6 models are likely associated with improvements in representing physical processes, providing valuable information for drought adaptation measures in China.

Attribution of Extreme Precipitation with Updated Observations and CMIP6 Simulations

Siyan Dong et al.

Summary: The study evaluates changes in percentile-based precipitation extreme indices, showing increases in most land areas with observations during global warming. CMIP6 models replicate overall increases, but with some regions experiencing considerable over- or underestimations. Fingerprinting analysis reveals detectable anthropogenic signals globally and continentally, with greenhouse gas signals separately detectable over the globe and over Asia. Conversely, signals of anthropogenic aerosols and natural forcings cannot be detected in any of these indices at either global or continental scales.

Bias-corrected CMIP6 global dataset for dynamical downscaling of the historical and future climate (1979-2100)

Zhongfeng Xu et al.

Summary: Dynamical downscaling is crucial for fine-scale weather and climate information, but simulations are often affected by biases in large-scale forcing. A bias-corrected global dataset was developed, showing better quality and practical value for future Earth climate projections.

Life-cycle cost analysis and resilience consideration for coupled grey infrastructure and low-impact development practices

Mo Wang et al.

Summary: Recent studies show that combining grey infrastructure with low-impact development is a promising approach for urban stormwater management. Coupled solutions in high-density catchments are economically competitive and show better technology-based resilience in extreme weather conditions. Meanwhile, operational resilience is more robust in coupled-systems compared to GREI-only systems.
