This study examines the interdecadal variation of cold season precipitation in arid West Asia (AWA) from 1960 to 2019 and identifies the underlying physical mechanisms. The results indicate that the precipitation in this region has exhibited significant interdecadal variation over the past 60 years, which is closely related to Interdecadal Pacific...
Asian drylands encompass Arid Central Asia (ACA) and West Asia (WA), where water vapor transport is consistently governed by the westerlies. Recent research has identified a dipole pattern in Holocene hydroclimate changes between the ACA and WA, challenging previous assumptions of uniform hydroclimate shifts across the westerlies-dominated mid-lati...
Iran is a hot climate change study area due to the unique geographical location and fragile ecological environment. As an important source of water resources, precipitation is crucial to the ecological environment and socio-economic development in Iran. Therefore, the applicability evaluation of precipitation datasets is the basis for conducting sc...
Exploring the spatiotemporal differences of hydroclimate variations is crucial for managing future climate change. In the Asian drylands, West Asia (WA) and arid central Asia (ACA) are both climatically dominated by the westerlies and have shown a dipole pattern in precipitation variation during the past several decades. However, it is unclear whet...
Arid West Asia (AWA) is a critical hub of the Silk Road and one of the primary dust source regions in the Northern Hemisphere. Dust storms in AWA emitting substantial dust particles into the atmosphere, significantly influencing air quality, climate change and marine productivity. However, the variability of dust storm activity in this region durin...
Although climate change has convincingly been linked to the evolution of human civilization on different temporal scales, its role in influencing the spatial patterns of ancient civilizations has rarely been investigated. The northward shift of the ancient Silk Road (SR) route from the Tarim Basin (TB) to the Dzungarian Basin during ∼420–850 CE pro...
Central Asia is the world’s largest azonal arid region, with strong seasonal precipitation patterns. Vegetation in this region is relatively sparse and extremely sensitive to climatic changes. However, long-term trends in vegetation in Central Asia are still unclear or even controversial, hindering the assessment of climate change’s impact on regio...
Drought indices are frequently used to measure the intensity, start and end of droughts. However, the performances of these indices depend on regions and the type of droughts. Therefore, it is necessary to evaluate whether these indices are applicable for a given region. This study evaluated the ability of the self-calibrating Palmer Drought Severi...
干旱指数作为衡量干旱事件变化的方法之一,由于其在区域适用性上存在差异,因此准确评估干旱指数的区域适用性是进行干旱事件研究的前提.本文基于多套资料集的降水、潜在蒸散发(PET)、土壤湿度和归一化植被指数数据,评估了自校正Palmer干旱指数(scPDSI)、标准化降水蒸散发指数(SPEI)和标准水分异常指数(SZI)对“西风模态”核心区干湿演变特征和干旱事件的描述能力.结果表明, 12个月尺度SZI(SZI12)、 SPEI(SPEI12)分别与降水、PET有较好的相关性, scPDSI则能较好地表征降水和土壤湿度的变化.在趋势分析中, SZI12和scPDSI指示1961~2014年新疆逐渐变湿的特征与其降水增加、PET减少、植被改善的趋势一致.相比之下，SPEI12受到PET的强烈影响,显...
Reconstructing temperature changes along the Silk Road (SR) over the last two millennia can provide insights into past global changes and their impact on the rise and fall of ancient civilizations in this region. Numerous high-quality single-site paleotemperature records have been produced for the eastern part of the SR (mainly for the Xinjiang reg...
The ecological environment of arid central Asia (ACA) is fragile and sensitive to long-term climate change. Recent palaeoclimatological studies have mainly focused on northwestern China, which is located on the eastern side of the region. Holocene palaeoclimate records from the western region of ACA are scarce, thus hindering the exploration of the...
Vegetation in arid central Asia (ACA) has been experiencing significant changes due to substantial warming and humidification since the 1980s. These changes are inhomogeneous due to the ecological vulnerability and topographic complexity of ACA. However, the heterogeneity of vegetation changes has received limited attention in the literature, which...
