Abstract We study the impact of recent global warming on extreme climatic events in Central Asia (CA) for 1901-2019 by comparing composite representation observational climate with a hypothetical counterfactual one that does not include long-term trend. The data are produced based simple detrending approach, using mean temperature (GMT) as independent variable and removing trends from variables data. This trend elimination is causality, day-to-day variability remains preserved. analysis done paper shows increase frequency magnitude precipitation can be attributed to warming. Specifically, probability experiencing +7 K anomaly event CA increases up factor seven some areas due reveals significant heatwave occurrences Asia, dataset GSWP3-W5E5 (later called also factual) showing more frequent prolonged heat than scenarios without trend, evident disparity between factual data, underscores critical changes weather patterns, highlighting urgent need robust adaptation mitigation strategies.

Abstract The inland river basins of northwestern China are structured as mountain-basin systems. Water resources originate in the flow-producing area (FPA), utilized and operated oasis dissipated desert area. In this study, a Soil Assessment Tool (SWAT) model was constructed Manas River Basin (MRB) FPA. Meanwhile, it simulated climate change runoff evolution trends FPA MRB under different four scenarios Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 5. main findings showed that (1) years 1979–1980 were chosen warm-up period, 1979–2000 calibration period 2001–2015 validation to complete construction SWAT for MRBFPA. From 1981 2015, three performance parameters indicated accuracy meets requirements (NSE = 0.81, R 2 0.81 PBIAS 1.44) can be used further studies; (2) hydrological elements (e.g. runoff, potential evapotranspiration, soil water content, snowmelt) MRBFPA analysed by model; (3) is close RCP 8.5 scenario, future changes scenario will range from 659 2308 (million)m 3 .

Consecutive wet (CWD), very heavy events (R20mm), maximum one-day (RX1day), (R95p) most areas.

But so far, data on genetic resources reeds still scarce, therefore most research focused physiological studies.In this study, we obtained first De novo non-redundant Full-Length Non-Chimeric (FLNC) transcriptome databases swamp (SR), (DR) All Phragmites australis (merged iso-seq from SR DR), using PacBio Iso-Seq technology combining tools such as Iso-Seq3 Cogent. We then identified described long non-coding RNAs (LncRNA), transcription factor (TF) alternative splicing (AS) events based a database. Meanwhile, have developed time large number candidates expressed sequence tag-SSR (EST-SSRs) markers UniTransModels.
