Two studies carried out during my PhD and my current 2-year postdoc project will be presented. The first study investigates climate change in High Mountain Asia (HMA) from 1979 to 2014 and future projections using CMIP6 global climate models (GCMs). …
The High Mountain Asia (HMA) is hosting the largest ice stock after the polar regions. This resource provides a freshwater supply to nearly 1.4 billion people, making it a particularly vulnerable region to climate change. HMA includes the highest …
Suite à la sortie de mon premier article scientifique sur le changement climatique en Himalaya et sur le Plateau Tibétain (en utilisant la dernière génération de modèles CMIP6), voici un résumé grand public publié par mon laboratoire : https://www.
Following the release of my first scientific paper on climate change in the Himalayas and the Tibetan Plateau (using the latest generation of CMIP6 models), here is a general public summary published by my laboratory: https://hma.
Climate change over High Mountain Asia is investigated with CMIP6 climate models. A general cold bias is found in this area, often related to a snow cover overestimation in the models. Ensemble experiments generally encompass the past observed trends, suggesting that even biased models can reproduce the trends. Depending on the future scenario, a warming from 1.9 to 6.5 °C, associated with a snow cover decrease and precipitation increase, is expected at the end of the 21st century.
