The century-long continuous daily observations from some stations are important for the study of long-term trends and extreme climate events in the past. In this paper, three daily data sources: (1) Department of Industry Agency of British Concession in Tianjin covering Sep 1 1890–Dec 31 1931 (2) Water Conservancy Commission of North China covering Jan 1 1932–Dec 31 1950 and (3) monthly journal sheets for Tianjin surface meteorological observation records covering Jan 1 1951–Dec 31 2019 have been collected from the Tianjin Meteorological Archive. The completed daily maximum and minimum temperature series for Tianjin from Jan 1 1887 (Sep 1 1890 for minimum) to Dec 31 2019 has been constructed and assessed for quality control and an early extension from 1890 to 1887. Several significant breakpoints are detected by the Penalized Maximal T-test (PMT) for the daily maximum and minimum time series using multiple reference series around Tianjin from monthly Berkeley Earth, CRUTS4.03 and GHCNV3 data. Using neighboring daily series the record has been homogenized with Quantile Matching (QM) adjustments. Based on the homogenized dataset, the warming trend in annual mean temperature in Tianjin averaged from the newly constructed daily maximum and minimum temperature is evaluated as 0.154 ± 0.013 °C decade-1 during the last 130 years. Trends of temperature extremes in Tianjin are all significant at the 5 % level, and have much more coincident change than those from the raw, with amplitudes of −1.454 d decade−1, 1.196 d decade−1, −0.140 d decade−1 and 0.975 d decade−1 for cold nights (TN10p), warm nights (TN90p), cold days (TX10p) and warm days (TX90p) at the annual scale.

This paper presents a new global, operational burned area (BA) product at 300 m, called C3SBA10, generated from Sentinel-3 Ocean and Land Colour Instrument (OLCI) near-infrared (NIR) reflectance and Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) thermal anomaly data. This product was generated within the Copernicus Climate Change Service (C3S). Since C3S is a European service, it aims to use extensively the European Copernicus satellite missions, named Sentinels. Therefore, one of the components of the service is adapting previous developed algorithms to the Sentinel sensors. In the case of BA datasets, the precursor BA dataset (FireCCI51), which was developed within the European Space Agency's (ESA) Climate Change Initiative (CCI), was based on the 250 m-resolution NIR band of the MODIS sensor, and the effort has been focused on adapting this BA algorithm to the characteristics of the Sentinel-3 OLCI sensor, which provides similar spatial and temporal resolution to MODIS. As the precursor BA algorithm, the OLCI's one combines thermal anomalies and spectral information in a two-phase approach, where first thermal anomalies with a high probability of being burned are selected, reducing commission errors, and then a contextual growing is applied to fully detect the BA patch, reducing omission errors. The new BA product includes the full time-series of S3 OLCI data (2017–present). Following the specifications of the FireCCI project, the final datasets are provided in two different formats: monthly full-resolution continental tiles, and monthly global files with aggregated data at 0.25-degree resolution. To facilitate the use by global vegetation dynamics and atmospheric emission models several auxiliary layers were included, such as land cover and cloud-free observations. The C3SBA10 product detected 3.77 Mkm2, 3.59 Mkm2, and 3.63 Mkm2 of annual BA from 2017 to 2019, respectively. The quality and consistency assessment of C3SBA10 and the precursor FireCCI51 was done for the common period (2017–2019). The global spatial validation was performed using reference data derived from Landsat-8 images, following a stratified random sampling design. The C3SBA10 showed commission errors between 14–22 % and omission errors from 50 to 53 %, similar to those presented by the FireCCI51 product. The temporal reporting accuracy was also validated using 4.7 million active fires. 88 % of the detections were made within 10 days after the fire by both products. The spatial and temporal consistency assessment performed between C3SBA10 and FireCCI51 using four different grid sizes (0.05o, 0.10o, 0.25o, and 0.50o) showed global, annual correlations between 0.93 and 0.99. This high consistency between both products ensures a global BA data provision from 2001 to present.

{"title":"Complementing regional moment magnitudes to GCMT: a\u0000perspective from the rebuilt ISC Bulletin","authors":"D. Di Giacomo, James Harris, D. Storchak","doi":"10.5194/ESSD-2020-371","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.5194/ESSD-2020-371","url":null,"abstract":"Abstract. Seismologists and geoscientists in general often need earthquake catalogues for various types of research. This input usually contains basic earthquake parameters such as location (longitude, latitude, depth and origin time) as well as magnitude information. For the latter, the moment magnitude Mw has became the most sought after magnitude scale in the seismological community to characterize the size of an earthquake. In this contribution we provide an informative account of the Mw content for the newly rebuilt Bulletin of the International Seismological Centre (ISC, http://www.isc.ac.uk/), which is regarded as the most comprehensive record of the Earth's seismicity. From it, we extracted a list of hypocentres with Mw from a multitude of agencies reporting data to the ISC. We first summarize the main temporal-spatial features of the Mw provided by global agencies (i.e., providing results for moderate to great earthquakes worldwide) and regional ones (i.e., also providing results or small earthquakes in a specific area). Then we discuss their comparisons, not only by considering Mw but also the surface wave magnitude MS and short-period body wave magnitude mb. By using the Global Centroid Moment Tensor solutions as authoritative global agency, we identify regional agencies that best complement it and show examples of frequency-magnitude distributions in different areas obtained both from the Global Centroid Moment Tensor alone and complemented by Mw from regional agencies. The work done by the regional agencies in terms of Mw is fundamental to improve our understanding of the seismicity of an area and we call for the implementation of procedures to compute Mw in a systematic way in areas currently not well covered in this respect, such as vast parts of continental Asia and Africa. In addition, more studies are needed to clarify the causes of the apparent overestimation of global Mw estimations compared to regional Mw. Such difference is also observed in the comparisons of Mw with MS and mb.

Salamon","doi":"10.5194/ESSD-2020-313","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.5194/ESSD-2020-313","url":null,"abstract":"Abstract. Continental scale hazard maps for riverine floods have grown in importance in the last years. Nowadays, they are used for a variety of research and commercial activities, such as evaluating present and future risk scenarios and adaptation strategies, as well as a support of national and local flood risk management plans. Here, we present a new set of hazard maps for river flooding that covers most of the geographical Europe and all the river basins entering the Mediterranean and Black Seas in the Caucasus, Middle East and Northern Africa countries. Maps represent inundation along 329’000 km of river network at 100 m resolution, for six different flood return periods. The input river flow data is produced by the hydrological model LISFLOOD, while inundation simulations are performed with the 2D hydrodynamic modelling LISFLOOD-FP. To provide an overview of the skill of the new maps, we undertake a detailed validation exercise of the new maps using official hazard maps for Hungary, Italy, Norway, Spain and the United Kingdom. We find that modelled maps can identify on average two-thirds of reference flood extent, however they also overestimate flood-prone areas for flood probabilities below 1-in-100-year, while for return periods equal or above 500 years the maps can correctly identify more than half of flooded areas. We attribute the observed skill to a number of shortcomings of the modelling framework, such as the absence of flood protections and rivers with upstream area below 500 km2, and the limitations in representing river channels and topography of low land areas. In addition, the large variability of reference maps affects the correct identification of the areas for the validation, thus penalizing scores. However, modelled maps achieve comparable results to existing large-scale flood models when using similar parameters for the validation. We conclude that recently released high-resolution elevation datasets combined with reliable data of river channel geometry may greatly contribute to improve future versions of continental-scale flood hazard maps.

In order to fight the spread of the global COVID-19 pandemic, most of the world countries have taken control measures such as lockdowns during a few weeks to a few months. These lockdowns had significant impacts on economic and personal activities in many countries. Several studies using satellite and surface observations have reported important changes in the spatial and temporal distributions of atmospheric pollutants and greenhouse gases. Global and regional chemistry-transport model studies are being performed in order to analyze the impact of these lockdowns on the distribution of atmospheric compounds. These modeling studies aim at evaluating the impact of the regional lockdowns at the global scale. In order to provide input for the global and regional model simulations, a dataset providing adjustment factors (AFs) that can easily be applied to global and regional emission inventories has been developed. This dataset provides, for the January–August 2020 period, gridded AFs at a 0.1 × 0.1 latitude/longitude degree resolution, on a daily or monthly basis for the transportation (road, air and ship traffic), power generation, industry and residential sectors. The quantification of AFs is based on activity data collected from different databases and previously published studies. A range of AFs is provided at each grid point for model sensitivity studies. The emission AFs developed in this study are applied to the CAMS global inventory (CAMS-GLOB-ANT_v4.2_R1.1), and the changes in emissions of the main pollutants are discussed for different regions of the world and the first six months of 2020. Maximum decreases in the emissions are found in February in Eastern China, with an average reduction of 20–30 % in NOx, NMVOCs and SO2 relative to the reference emissions. In the other regions, the maximum changes occur in April, with average reductions of 20–30 % for NOx, NMVOCs and CO in Europe and North America and larger decreases (30–50 %) in South America. In India and African regions, NOx and NMVOCs emissions are reduced by 15–30 %. For the others species, the maximum reductions are generally less than 15 %, except in South America, where large decreases in CO and BC are estimated. As discussed in the paper, reductions vary highly across regions and sectors, due to the differences in the duration of the lockdowns before partial or complete recovery. The dataset providing a range of AFs (average and average ± standard deviation) is called CONFORM (COvid adjustmeNt Factor fOR eMissions) (https://doi.org/10.25326/88).

Long-term climate data and high-quality baseline climatology surface with high resolution are highly essential to multiple fields in climatological, ecological, hydrological, and environmental sciences. Here, we created a brand-new baseline climatology surface (ChinaClim_baseline) and developed a 1 km monthly precipitation and temperatures dataset in China during 1952–2019 (ChinaClim_timeseries). Thin plate spline (TPS) algorithm in each month with different model formulations by accounting for satellite-driven products, was used to generate ChinaClim_baseline and monthly climate anomaly surface. Meanwhile, climatologically aided interpolation (CAI) was used to superimpose monthly anomaly surface with ChinaClim_baseline to generate ChinaClim_timeseries. Our results showed that ChinaClim_baseline exhibited very high performance. For precipitation estimation, the value of all R2 was over 0.860, and the values of RMSEs and MAEs were 8.149 mm~21.959 mm and 2.787~14.125 mm, respectively. Temperature elements had an average R2 of 0.967~0.992, an average MAEs of 0.321~0.785 °C, and an average RMSEs between 0.485 and 1.233 °C for all months. ChinaClim_baseline performed much better than WorldClim2 and CHELSA and there were many spatial discrepancies captured among those surfaces, especially in summer months and the regions with low-density weather stations in temperate continental and high cold Tibetan Plateau. For ChinaClim_timeseries, precipitation had an average R2 of 0.699~0.923, an average RMSE between 7.449 mm and 56.756 mm, and an average of MAE of 4.263~40.271 mm for all months. Temperature elements had an average R2 of 0.936~0.985, an average RMSE between 0.807 °C and 1.766 °C, and an average MAE of 0.548~1.236 °C for all months. Compared with Peng's climate surface and CHELSAcruts, R2 increased by approximately 6 %, RMSE and MAE decreased by approximately 15 % for precipitation; R2 of temperatures had no obviously changes, but RMSE and MAE decreased by 8.37~34.02 %. The results showed that the interannual variations of ChinaClim_timeseries performed much better than other datasets, thanks to the help of ChinaClim_baseline and satellite-driven products. However, ChinaClim_baseline did not significantly improve the accuracy of precipitation estimation, but it greatly improved the accuracy of temperature estimation; the satellite-driven TRMM3B43 anomaly greatly improve the accuracy of precipitation estimation after 1998, while the LST anomaly did not effectively improve the accuracy of temperature estimation. ChinaClim_baseline can be used as an excellent baseline climatology surface for obtaining high-quality and long-term climate datasets from past to future. In the meantime, ChinaClim_timeseries of 1 km spatial resolution based on ChinaClim_baseline, is very suitable for investigating the spatial-temporal climate changes and their impacts on eco-environmental systems in China.

Here, a new soil monitoring network, indicated as STH-net, has been recently implemented to provide high-resolution data about the most relevant hydrological variables and local soil properties. The monitoring network is spatially optimized, based on previous knowledge from soil mapping and soil moisture monitoring, in order to capture the spatial variability of soil properties and soil water dynamics along a catena across the site as well as in depth. The STH-net comprises eight stations instrumented with time-domain reflectometry (TDR) probes, soil temperature probes and piezometers.

Land cover (LC) determines the energy exchange, water and carbon cycle between Earth's spheres. Accurate LC information is a fundamental parameter for the environment and climate studies. Considering that the LC in China has been altered dramatically with the economic development in the past few decades, sequential and fine-scale LC monitoring is in urgent need. However, currently, fine-resolution annual LC dataset produced by the observational images is generally unavailable for China due to the lack of sufficient training samples and computational capabilities. To deal with this issue, we produced the first Landsat-derived annual China Land Cover Dataset (CLCD) on the Google Earth Engine (GEE) platform, which contains 30 m annual LC and its dynamics of China from 1990 to 2019. We first collected the training samples by combining stable samples extracted from China’s Land-Use/Cover Datasets (CLUD), and visually-interpreted samples from satellite time-series data, Google Earth and Google Map. Using 335,709 Landsat images on the GEE, several temporal metrics were constructed and fed to the random forest classifier to obtain classification results. We then proposed a post-processing method incorporating spatial-temporal filtering and logical reasoning to further improve the spatial-temporal consistency of CLCD. Finally, the overall accuracy of CLCD reached 79.31 % based on 5,463 visually-interpreted samples. A further assessment based on 5,131 third-party test samples showed that the overall accuracy of CLCD outperforms that of MCD12Q1, ESACCI_LC, FROM_GLC, and GlobaLand30. Besides, we intercompared the CLCD with several Landsat-derived thematic products, which exhibited good consistencies with the Global Forest Change, the Global Surface Water, and three impervious surface products. Based on the CLCD, the trends and patterns of China’s LC changes during 1985 and 2019 were revealed, such as expansion of impervious surface (+148.71 %) and water (+18.39 %), decrease of cropland (−4.85 %) and grassland (−3.29 %), increase of forest (+4.34 %). In general, CLCD reflected the rapid urbanization and a series of ecological projects (e.g., Gain for Green) in China and revealed the anthropogenic implications on LC under the condition of climate change, signifying its potential application in the global change research.

High quality and long-term soil moisture productions are significant for hydrologic monitoring and agricultural management. However, the acquired daily soil moisture productions are incomplete in global land (just about 30 %∼80 % coverage ratio), due to the satellite orbit coverage and the limitations of soil moisture retrieving algorithms. To solve this inevitable problem, we develop a novel 3D spatio-temporal partial convolutional neural network (CNN) for Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer 2 (AMSR2) soil moisture productions gap-filling. Through the proposed framework, we generate the seamless global daily (SGD) AMSR2 soil moisture long-term productions from 2013 to 2019. To further validate the effectiveness of these productions, three verification ways are employed as follow: 1) In-situ validation; 2) Time-series validation; And 3) simulated missing regions validation. Results show that the seamless global daily soil moisture productions have reliable cooperativity with the selected in-situ values. The evaluation indexes of the reconstructed (original) dataset are R: 0.683 (0.687), RMSE: 0.099 m3/m3 (0.095 m3/m3), and MAE: 0.081 m3/m3 (0.078 m3/m3), respectively. Temporal consistency of the reconstructed daily soil moisture productions is ensured with the original time-series distribution of valid values. Besides, the spatial continuity of the reconstructed regions is also accorded with the context information (R: 0.963∼0.974, RMSE: 0.065∼0.073 m3/m3, and MAE: 0.044∼0.052 m3/m3).
