Extreme heat poses significant risks to the world’s growing urban population, and the heat stress to human health is likely to escalate with the anthropogenically increased temperatures projected by climate models. Thus, the additional heat from the urban heat island (UHI) effect needs to be quantified, including the spatial pattern. This study foc...

Long-term changes of plant phenological phases determined by complex interactions of environmental factors are in the focus of recent climate impact research. There is a lack of studies on the comparison of biogeographical regions in Europe in terms of plant responses to climate. We examined the flowering phenology of plant species to identify the...

Most of European cities have not been planned taking into account energy and environmental aspects that are essential to sustainable urban mobility. We propose some strategic changes in the transport system and adding new smart features built upon the already existing innovations in the city of Valencia.

Eco-climatological studies recognise plant phenophases as high-confident climate indicators, since they are strongly dependent on heat conditions. We investigated the first flowering response of numerous plant species to inter-annual fluctuation of seasonal temperatures (e.g., heat sensitivity of the phenophase), also the rate of these species-spec...

EURO-CORDEX is the European branch of the CORDEX initiative aiming at producing ensemble climate simulations based on multiple dynamical and empirical-statistical downscaling models forced by multiple global climate models from the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 5 (CMIP5). This paper presents a validation study for the high resolution...

Glacio-climatological studies recognise glacier mass balance changes as high-confident climate indicators. The climatic sensitivity of a glacier does not simply depend on regional climate variability but also influenced via large-and mesoscale atmospheric circulation patterns. This study focuses on recent changes in the mass balance using records f...

Eco-climatological studies often refer that plant phenophases are strongly influenced by temperature. Consequently, these variables might be used as proxy in climate reconstructions. In the present study, we have investigated the first flowering response of numerous plant species to interannual fluctuation of seasonal temperatures (e.g., temperatur...
