CENTA 2027-B27 Mangroves in a changing climate: how increasing salinity alters carbon gain and water use

Climate change is accelerating sea-level rise, increasing saltwater intrusion into coastal wetlands and exposing mangrove ecosystems to increasingly saline conditions (Acosta-Motos et al., 2017; Dessu et al., 2018). Read more

CENTA 2027-B25 Which floodplains are the most important? Characterising global connectivity between rivers and their flood corridors

When river flow is high enough to exceed the banks of its channels, it inundates the floodplain. Integrated over entire catchments, so-called river-floodplain exchange impacts a significant amount of the flow moving through river basins, carrying sediments, nutrients, and other materials. Read more

Quantifying the likelihood of persistent extreme weather events in a changing climate

Background. Persistent extreme weather events such as heatwaves, cold snaps, or particularly rainy and/or stormy seasons have huge socio-economic impact; estimating the probabilities of their occurrence which can inform assessments of health or flood risks is therefore an important task. Read more
