Climate variability and trends in the Endorheic Lake Hayk basin: implications for Lake Hayk water level changes in the lake basin, Ethiopia
For sustainable climate hazard management, climate information at the local level is crucial for developing countries like Ethiopia, which has an exceptionally low adaptive capacity to changes in…
A ~ 40-year paleoenvironmental record from the Swan Oxbow, Yangtze River, China, inferred from testate amoebae and sedimentary pigments
We present a ~ 40–year record of environmental change in the Swan Oxbow, Yangtze River, China, inferred from testate amoeba and sedimentary pigment data, combined with remote sensing and analysis of…
Human footprints provide snapshot of last interglacial ecology in the Arabian interior
TLDR
It is concluded that visitation to the lake was transient, likely serving as a place to drink and to forage, and that late Pleistocene human and mammalian migrations and landscape use patterns in Arabia were inexorably linked.
Geochemistry and sedimentary photopigments as proxies to reconstruct past environmental changes in a subtropical reservoir
Sediment cores were used to establish past environmental impacts associated with eutrophication, erosion and metal contamination in the subtropical Atibainha reservoir (São Paulo State, Brazil). We…
Evaluating flood risk management practices and vulnerability mapping in Alawuha watershed (North Wollo Zone, Ethiopia) using GIS and remote sensing
The current magnitude of flooding in Ethiopia is unprecedented. It is a typical disaster in Ethiopia with the evidence of the recent Dire Dawa and Omo River surroundings, especially during the rainy…
