Evolution of Dry/Wet Climate in Xichang from 1961 to 2016 by XIAO Xiwen, ZHANG Yunlu, LIU Chunhong, WANG Yuefeng

“…Regional climate analysis can optimize and supplement global climate research,and it is of vital significance for predicting regional climate changes and extreme weather.Based on the daily temperature and precipitation data from 1961 to 2016 in Xichang city,this paper systematically reveals the characteristics of temperature,precipitation,and dry and wet climate changes at annual and inter-annual scales by using the cumulative anomaly method,nonparametric trend analysis of time series (innovative trend analysis (ITA) method and ITA-change boxes (ITA-CB) method) and standardized precipitation evaporation index (SPEI).The results show that:① The distribution characteristics of annual temperature and precipitation in Xichang are similar,with the maximum value of both appearing in July.Moreover,the minimum temperature and precipitation appear in January and February,respectively.The average inter-annual and inter-decadal temperatures increase obviously,and the average inter-decadal precipitation improves slowly.② For the past 56 years,Xichang has witnessed apparent dry and wet climate changes.SPEI has dropped in a fluctuating tendency.In addition,it is negatively correlated with temperature (p<0.05) but positively correlated with precipitation (p<0.01).As temperature increases significantly,the drought degree has become more and more serious since 2003,and the negative value of SPEI accounts for 78.6%.The proportion of drought to extreme drought has increased to 28.6% in 2010.③ The average annual precipitation increases in low-value regions but decreases in high-value regions.The average annual temperature rises both in low-value regions and high-value regions and basically maintains an increasing tendency in median regions.SPEI increases in low-value regions but decreases in median and high-value regions.The research results can provide a reference for Xichang in dealing with climate change and formulating disaster prevention and mitigation plans.…”

Operational Identification of Resistances of Wires of 380 V Distribution Networks by Automated Accounting Systems by M. I. Danilov, I. G. Romanenko

“…In these resistances, the reactive components are considered equal within the inter-subscriber section; the active components differ due to the influence of unequal flowing currents and/or weather factors. At the same time, data from two different network operating modes are required, which are selected based on the analysis of the dynamics of changes of supply currents and/or voltages by the accounting system device connected to the power supply node. …”

High fire frequency in California chaparral reduces postfire shrub regeneration and native plant diversity by Ashley R. Grupenhoff, Hugh D. Safford

“…Modern fire frequencies are much higher in chaparral, driven largely by high densities of human ignitions and coincidence between ignitions and severe weather conditions. This change in the fire regime has major implications for biodiversity, leading to exotic invasion, decreased ecosystem services, and potential type conversion of shrubland to grassland dominated by exotic species. …”
