TL;DR: To assess future drought losses, the regional gross domestic product under shared socioeconomic pathways instead of using a static socioeconomic scenario is predicted and increasing precipitation and evapotranspiration patterns are identified for the 1.5 °C and 2.0 °C global warming above the preindustrial at 2020–2039 and 2040–2059, respectively.

Future drought characteristics through a multi-model ensemble from CMIP6 over South Asia
Jianqing Zhai,Sanjit Kumar Mondal,Thomas Fischer,Yanjun Wang,Buda Su,Jinlong Huang,Hui Tao,Guojie Wang,Waheed Ullah,Md. Jalal Uddin +9 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a five-model ensemble mean from CMIP6 was chosen to project drought characteristics in South Asia under the latest SSPs-RCPs emission scenarios (SSP1-26, SSP2-45, and SSP5-85) for the period 2020-2099.

Buda Su,Buda Su,Buda Su,Jinlong Huang,Sanjit Kumar Mondal,Jianqing Zhai,Jianqing Zhai,Yanjun Wang,Shanshan Wen,Miaoni Gao,Yanran Lv,Shan Jiang,Tong Jiang,Aiwei Li +13 more
TL;DR: In this paper, future drought characteristics over China are analyzed by using four climate models from CMIP6 under the seven SSP-RCP (shared socioeconomic pathway-representative concentration pathway) scenarios (SSP119, SSP126,SSP434, SSA245, SSSP460, SSE370, and SSP585) for three defined periods of 2021-2040 (near-term), 2041-2060 (mid-term) and 2081-2100 (long-term).
Journal ArticleDOI
Tens of thousands additional deaths annually in cities of China between 1.5 °C and 2.0 °C warming.
Yanjun Wang,Anqian Wang,Jianqing Zhai,Hui Tao,Tong Jiang,Buda Su,Jun Yang,Guojie Wang,Qiyong Liu,Chao Gao,Zbigniew W. Kundzewicz,Zbigniew W. Kundzewicz,Mingjin Zhan,Zhiqiang Feng,Thomas Fischer +14 more
TL;DR: The authors determine the regional high temperature thresholds for 27 metropolises in China and analyze the changes to heat-related mortality, showing that the additional global-warming temperature increase of 0.5°C, from 1.5 °C to 2 C, will lead to tens of thousands of additional deaths, annually.
Journal ArticleDOI
Flood risk and its reduction in China
Zbigniew W. Kundzewicz,Zbigniew W. Kundzewicz,Zbigniew W. Kundzewicz,Buda Su,Buda Su,Yanjun Wang,Jun Xia,Jinlong Huang,Tong Jiang,Tong Jiang +9 more
TL;DR: Wang et al. as mentioned in this paper reviewed published results (including their own works) on change detection in observed records of intense precipitation, high river flow and flood damage in China and provided information on essential features of extreme floods in last decades.
