Volume, evolution, and sedimentation of future glacier lakes in Switzerland over the 21st century

Earth Surface Dynamics, Journal Year: 2022, Volume and Issue: 10(4), P. 723 - 741

Published: July 14, 2022

Abstract. Ongoing climate change and associated glacier retreat is causing rapid environmental change, including shifts in high-alpine landscapes. Glacier lakes, which can form topographical depressions left behind by retreat, are prominent features within such Whilst model-based estimates for the number area of future lakes exist various mountain regions across world, exact morphology temporal evolution remain largely unassessed. Here, we leverage a recently released, measurement-based estimate subglacial topography all glaciers Swiss Alps to provide an about number, size, time emergence, sediment infill lakes. The information based on 2450 km measured ice thickness profiles, whilst obtained from model forced with ensemble projections. We that up 683 potential >5000 m2 depth >5 m could emerge if were disappear completely, hold total water volume 1.16 [1.05, 1.32] km3 (numbers 95 % confidence interval).

The need for stewardship of lands exposed by deglaciation from climate change

Wiley Interdisciplinary Reviews Climate Change, Journal Year: 2021, Volume and Issue: 13(2)

Published: Dec. 28, 2021

Abstract Alpine glaciers worldwide will lose most of their volume by the end 21st century, placing alpine ecosystems and human populations at risk. The new lands that emerge from retreating provide a host challenges for ecological adaptation to climate change. In these novel proglacial landscapes, succession natural hazards interplay with local agriculture, hydroelectric production, mining activities, tourism. Research has emphasized importance understanding around socio‐environmental systems, but regional global management efforts support initiatives connect landscapes ecological, social, cultural conservation opportunities are rare nascent. characteristics emerging reflect nexus socio‐political histories. Often overlooked in glacial‐influenced systems interdependencies, feedbacks, tradeoffs between biophysical populations. There is no coordinated strategy manage anticipate shifting dynamics, while affirming practices contexts. an opportunity initiate conversation co‐create governance structure develop framework suitable Anthropocene era. This article first synthesizes rapid changes occurring landscapes. Second, we consider need integrating “bottom‐up” “top‐down” approaches sustainable Finally, propose establishing transdisciplinary initiative policy‐related goals further dialogues We call increased cooperation actors, sectors, regions, favoring multiscale integrated approaches. categorized under: Climate, Ecology, Conservation > Strategies

The wealth of water reuse research in scarcity and/or rapid urbanisation contexts has underpinned significant change many relatively scarce contexts. Less progress been achieved rich contexts; a fact illustrated by the lack on ground. Climate Emergency demands that all municipalities urgently contribute to more efficient resource management water. Consequently, advance municipal scale projects locations where is not forcing issue, for example Scotland, there need predicate different drivers, specifically climate and circular economy.

Recycled Wastewater Usage: A Comprehensive Review for Sustainability of Water Resources

Recent Progress in Materials, Journal Year: 2022, Volume and Issue: 04(04), P. 1 - 20

Published: Nov. 25, 2022

Water recycling is a potential tool for reducing the dependency on traditional water sources, which would eventually reduce likelihood of volumetric restrictions and their impacts sector. Therefore, exploration, development, use alternative sources are required sustainable development. Scientific studies efficient economical nontraditional developed using process have attracted attention agriculturists, planners, engineers last two decades. Recycled wastewater types, including greywater, sewage, stormwater, industrial wastewater, been discussed in this study. This article reviewed various forms recycled especially from treated effects human health irrigated environment. In addition, necessity exploration usage agriculture over has also reviewed. Legislations guidelines three major countries regarding subsequent presented. The key finding that industry can only be connected sustainably when complies with agronomical, environmental, sanitary requirements. Because rapid advancements technologies, great to manage increasing burden freshwater resources. Finally, crucial minimize negative agriculture, environment, health.
