The North China Plain

This study first tested and verified the ability of the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model to simulate the near-surface temperature in the North China Plain. Then the static land cover data in the WRF were replaced, and thereafter the modified WRF model was used to explore the impacts of land cover change on the near-surface temperature in the North China Plain in year 1992 and year 2005. The results indicated that the land cover change in the North China Plain, which was characterized by the regional urbanization, had led to significant changes in the near-surface temperature, increasing the regional near-surface temperature by 0.03°C/year on average. The spatial pattern of the climate change basically corresponded to that of the land cover change; for example, the temperature increased most significantly in the regions mainly consisting of cities and built-up area. Besides, there were some variations in the degree and range of influence of the land cover change on the temperature among seasons. The result can provide important theoretical support for the adaptation to climate change, scientific land cover change management, and land use planning.

<p><strong>Abstract.</strong> The aim of this paper is to perform a preliminary analysis of the compatibility and quality of the available time series of land cover data available for continental Portugal, in particular, Climate Change Initiative Land Cover maps, which are available annually from 1992 to 2015; CORINE Land Cover and the Urban Atlas for 2006 and 2012; and the Portuguese Carta de Ocupação do Solo for 2007 and 2010. Changes were first identified per product between the different data sets for consecutive dates and then a comparison was made between products. This was followed by validation of two study areas using the COS and UA as reference products. The results show that increases in urbanization are visible in all pairs of products but that the amount of change varies. Moreover, some changes are not in the same direction but may be attributable to classes with small areas and the coarser resolution of the CCI LC maps compared to the other products. The CCI LC maps also overestimate the forest/natural vegetation class by 11&amp;ndash;13%, which is also the largest class in Portugal.</p>

The Relationship

The article deals with the problem of achieving sustainable development. The purpose of this study is to reveal the relationship between the components of sustainable development, taking into account the involvement of indigenous peoples in nature conservation. Climate change makes achieving sustainable development more difficult. Indigenous peoples are the first to feel the effects of climate change and play an important role in the environmental monitoring of their places of residence. The natural environment is the basis of life for indigenous peoples, and biological resources are the main source of food security. In the future, the importance of bioresources will increase, which is why economic development cannot be considered independently. It is assumed that the components of resilience are interrelated and influence each other. To identify this relationship, a model for the correlation of sustainable development components was developed. The model is based on the methods of correlation analysis and allows to determine the tightness of the relationship between economic development and its ecological footprint in the face of climate change. The correlation model was tested on the statistical materials of state reports on the environmental situation in the Khanty-Mansiysk Autonomous Okrug – Yugra. The approbation revealed a strong positive relationship between two components of sustainable development of the region: economy and ecology.
