Research on Spatiotemporal Evolution and Driving Factors of Extreme Climate in Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area by GUO Shan, ZHANG Dawei, WANG Yadi

“…In recent years,frequent extreme climate events have become the focus of attention of the world.Studying the spatiotemporal evolution of extreme climate in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area is of great significance for timely and accurate disaster prevention and mitigation forecasts and early warnings.On the basis of the precipitation and temperature data from 1961 to 2016,this paper uses the heuristic segmentation method,Mann-Kendall trend test,and cross wavelet method to analyze the spatiotemporal evolution of extreme climate in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area and its relationship with driving factors.The results reveal that extreme precipitation and temperature changes are potentially related to sunspots and large-scale circulation factors including the multivariate ENSO index (MEI) and interdecadal Pacific oscillation (IPO),but their effects on extreme climate are different.Climate change will continue to profoundly affect urban construction and development.For future studies on the climate change in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area,attention should be paid to the impact assessment of climate change in the Pearl River Basin and typical regions,and the research on the occurrence mechanism,risk assessment,countermeasures of extreme weather in the basin should be strengthened to reduce the damage of extreme climate events.…”

Runoff Simulation of Dadu River Basin Based on CORDEX Regional Climate Models by PAN Zhangrong, GUO Junhong, FU Zhenghui, WANG Shuhang, LI Wei, CHEN Zhuo, QING Hui

“…Studying the prediction of the runoff in Dadu River Basin under climate changes can effectively improve the future utilization rate of the water resources in this basin and provide a reference for hydropower dispatching.Specifically,stepwise clustering analysis is performed to correct and verify the 1970—2005 data of six coordinated regional climate downscaling experiment (CORDEX) regional climate models and thereby simulated the climate change trend of Dadu River Basin during 2030—2065.Then,an annual-scale Soil & Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) model of Dadu River Basin was built and calibrated and verified by SWAT-CUP.Finally,the corrected meteorological data of the future period were used to drive the SWAT model and ultimately to forecast the future runoff in Dadu River Basin.The results show that in this basin,precipitation will change slightly,and the maximum temperature and the minimum temperature will increase on the whole under future representative concentration pathway (RCP) 4.5 and RCP8.5 scenarios.The future runoff will roughly assume an increasing trend,and the runoff fluctuation trend before and after 2050 will be inconsistent.In other words,the runoff change is small before 2050,whereas the trend of runoff change under both scenarios becomes significantly larger,suggesting higher uncertainties in the prediction of the runoff in this basin.…”
