16 Coastal Cities’ Adaptation to Climate Change

BRILL eBooks (2014)

Lige Cao Buda Su Jianqing Zhai Marco Gemmer Mingjin Zhan

The economically, socially, and culturally most developed areas worldwide are located predominantly along the coastlines. Socio-economic development has accumulated large populations and high value assets in coastal cities while coastal cities have become prone to climate change effects. Sea level rise, tropical cyclones, rainstorms, floods, storm surges, high temperatures, and heat waves have posed new challenges to coastal city development. Domestic and foreign coastal cities such as Shanghai, Guangzhou, Tianjin, Xiamen, Hong Kong, New York, London, Singapore, and Cape Town are analyzed on their current climate change adaptation techniques. Governments and communities along the coasts should be aware of the influences and consequences of climate change, and should not focus all of their energy on energy conservation and emissions reduction technologies. They should also take active measures to adapt to climate change, protect wetlands, estuaries, and alluvial plains along the coasts, slow down coastal erosion and enhance natural defense capabilities. Keywords: climate change; coastal cities

Study on the Change Characteristics of and Population Exposure to Heatwave Events on the North China Plain

Advances in Meteorology (2019)

Longfei Zhan Yanjun Wang Hemin Sun Jianqing Zhai Mingjin Zhan

In accordance with the China Meteorological Administration definition, this study considered a weather process with a maximum surface temperature of ≥35°C for more than three consecutive days as a heatwave event. Based on a dataset of daily maximum temperatures from meteorological stations on the North China Plain, including ordinary and national basic/reference surface stations, the intensity-area-duration method was used to analyze the spatiotemporal distribution characteristics of heatwave events on the North China Plain (1961–2017). Moreover, based on demographic data from the Statistical Yearbook and Greenhouse Gas Initiative (GGI) Population Scenario Database of the Austrian Institute for International Applied Systems Analysis (IIASA), population exposure to heatwave events was also studied. The results showed that the frequency, intensity, and area of impact of heatwave events on the North China Plain initially decreased (becoming weaker and less extensive) and then increased (becoming stronger and more extensive). Similarly, the trend of population exposure to heatwave events initially decreased and then increased, and the central position of exposure initially moved southward and then returned northward. Population exposure in the eastern Taihang Mountains was found significantly higher than in the western Taihang Mountains. In relation to the change of population exposure to heatwave events on the North China Plain, the influence of climatic factors was found dominant with an absolute contribution rate of >75%. Except for 2011–2017, increase in population also increased the exposure to heatwaves, particularly in the first half of the study period. Interaction between climatic and population factors generally had less impact on population exposure than either climatic factors or population factors alone. This study demonstrated a method for assessing the impact of heatwave events on population exposure, which could form a scientific basis for the development of government policy regarding adaption to climate change.

New Design and Observation of Lysimeter on Actual Evapotranspiration

Bo Liu Tong Jiang Jianqing Zhai Zhang Wenhong

Research on water balance and evapotranspiration(ETa) process is an important part in water cycle research.Observation and assessment on ETa over land surface are of great significance for the understanding of water cycle and sustainable development of water resources under climate change conditions. However,traditional lysimeter is usually of simple function,limited precision,and is expensive in installation and daily operation.To observe ETa over land surface and understand the 'evaporation paradox', the authors designed this new lysimeter system,which is located in the Ecological Experiment Station of Nanchang County in Jiangxi Province,to study the impacts of climate change on water cycle and ETa over land surface.With many hi-techs such as high resolution weighting system(0.01 mm),pf-meters (pf:0-7) and observation GPRS loggers(24 bit,512 k),ETa over land and its process are measured based on the observation of soil water potential(Matrix potential),lysimeter and groundwater level.Be- sides higher precision and frequency compared to traditional lysimeter,this new system can observe ETa process,the new loggers for soil moisture and water potential,which got the international patent in 2004 thus it is of high precision,observation frequency and wide adaption to environment,and therefore can be used to a wide range of application based on different targets and new version of design.
