Impacts of climate change on precipitation climatology and variability in Turkey
(Springer International Publishing Ag, 2020)
In this chapter, changes in seasonal precipitation climatology, extreme weather conditions, and aridity conditions of Turkey are evaluated for the period of 2021-2050 with respect to the reference period of 1971-2000 by ...
Future global meteorological drought hot spots: A study based on CORDEX data
(American Meteorological Society, 2020-05-01)
Two questions motivated this study: 1) Will meteorological droughts become more frequent and severe during the twenty-first century? 2) Given the projected global temperature rise, to what extent does the inclusion of ...
Global exposure of population and land-use to meteorological droughts under different Warming Levels and Shared Socioeconomic Pathways: A Coordinated Regional Climate Downscaling Experiment-based study
(John Wiley and Sons Ltd, 2021-12)
Global warming is likely to cause a progressive drought increase in some regions, but how population and natural resources will be affected is still underexplored. This study focuses on global population and land-use ...
Spatial extent of precipitation events: when big is getting bigger
(Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH, 2021-10)
Using a sub-selection of regional climate models at 0.11 degrees (approximate to 12 km) grid resolution from the EURO-CORDEX ensemble, we investigate how the spatial extent of areas associated with the most intensive daily ...
Quaternary rock uplift rates and their implications for the western flank of the North Anatolian Fault restraining bend; inferences from fluvial terrace ages
(Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2020-10-01)
In the western flank of the North Anatolian Fault restraining bend (i.e., Central Pontides), the Filyos River incises through the uplifting Karabük Range, creating the ~1.7-km-deep Filyos River Gorge on the hanging wall ...
River, alluvial fan and landslide interactions in a tributary junction setting: Implications for tectonic controls on Quaternary fluvial landscape development (Central Anatolian Plateau northern margin, Turkey)
(Elsevier B.V., 2021-03-01)
Along the western flank of the northern margin (Central Pontides) of the Central Anatolian Plateau, the humidity from the Black Sea is much higher than the central and eastern flanks and creates a complex relationship ...
Business-as-usual will lead to super and ultra-extreme heatwaves in the Middle East and North Africa
(Nature Research, 2021-03-21)
Global climate projections suggest a significant intensification of summer heat extremes in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA). To assess regional impacts, and underpin mitigation and adaptation measures, robust ...
Projected changes in extreme temperature and precipitation indices over CORDEX-MENA domain
(MDPI AG, 2021-05)
In this study, projected changes in climate extreme indices defined by the Expert Team on Climate Change Detection and Indices were investigated over Middle East and North Africa. Changes in the daily maximum and minimum ...
Aeolian imprints of multiple Mediterranean invasions of the Black Sea during Pleistocene
(Elsevier B.V., 2022-03-04)
Climate changes determined the repeated connections between the Black Sea, Caspian Sea and Mediterranean Sea. The landlocked anoxic Black Sea basin was exposed to several transgressions throughout Quaternary by the ...
Robustness of future atmospheric circulation changes over the EURO-CORDEX domain
(Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH, 2021-11-25)
European climate is associated with variability and changes in the mid-latitude atmospheric circulation. In this study, we aim to investigate potential future change in circulation over Europe by using the EURO-CORDEX ...
