Graphical-statistical method to explore variability of hydrological time series
(Hydrology Research, 2021-02)
Due to increasing concern on developing measures for predictive adaptation to climate change impacts on hydrology, several studies have tended to be conducted on trends in climatic data. Conventionally, trend analysis ...
Long-term climatic water availability trends and variability across the African continent
(Theoretical and Applied Climatology : Springer Link, 2021-06-29)
This study analyzed trends and variability in climatic water availability (CWA) across the African continent using monthly precipitation and potential evapotranspiration (PET) over the period 1901–2015. Climatic water ...
Negative emotions about climate change are related to insomnia symptoms and mental health: cross-sectional evidence from 25 countries
(Current Psychology : Springer, 2021-02-16)
Climate change threatens mental health via increasing exposure to the social and economic disruptions created by extreme weather and large-scale climatic events, as well as through the anxiety associated with recognising ...
Changes in precipitation and evapotranspiration over Lokok and Lokere catchments in Uganda
(Bulletin of Atmospheric Science and Technology volume : Springer Link, 2021-03-24)
This study analysed long-term (1948–2016) changes in gridded (0.25° × 0.25°) Princeton Global Forcing (PGF) precipitation and potential evapotranspiration (PET) data over Lokok and Lokere catchments. PGF-based and station ...
Impacts of climate variability and changing land use/land cover on River Mpanga flows in Uganda, East Africa
(Environmental Challenges : Elsevier, 2021-12-09)
We analyzed River Mpanga Catchment (RMC) land use/land cover (LULC) types based on Landsat images for 2000, 2008 and 2014. Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) was driven by daily meteorological data from 2000 to 2011 to ...
Investigating false start of the main growing season: a case of Uganda in East Africa
(Heliyon, 2021-11-19)
False start of the growing season (Fsos) is a component of the onset variability related to agronomic drought that adversely impact on agricultural production and productivity. In the sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) where agriculture ...
Water availability trends across water management zonesin Uganda
(Atmospheric Science Letters, 2021-06-21)
This study assessed trends in gridded (0.25° × 0.25°) Climate Forecast System Reanalysis (CFSR) precipitation, potential evapotranspiration (PET), and precipitation minus PET (PMP) across the four water management zones ...
