“…The increase in grassland or steppe after the early Holocene has been regarded as a vegetation response to the MHCO. The insights gained from our results suggest that in the future, the Loess Plateau, which will have inevitable increases in temperature and precipitation under global warming (Ren et al, 2023), analogous to the mid-Holocene conditions, will become more suitable for increased grass coverage. Climate change and vegetation suitability cannot be neglected despite inevitable human intervention (He et al, 2022).…”

“…The improper introduction of plant species with excessive water demands, such as Populus tremula (Cao et al, 2010) and Robinia pseudoacacia (Liang et al, 2018), together with the enhanced transpiration resulting from warming, may accentuate the water woes as well as financial burden, and further affect biodiversity and ecosystem services (Hua et al, 2022). In particular, long-term afforestation efficiency is still worrisome in the face of future warming (Gosling et al, 2022;Popkin, 2019). Given such a situation, some researchers have emphasized the necessity of using native species for afforestation (Shi et al, 2020).…”

Microcharcoal morphology, which changes with biofuel type in the wildfire, can be used as an index for wildfire history and vegetation evolution. Here, five loess sites across the Chinese Loess Plateau were used to establish the biofuel history of the region during the Holocene based on microcharcoal morphological records. The results suggested that consistently increasing grass biofuel dominated the mid‐Holocene (∼7,500–3,000 yr BP), and the grassland or steppe expanded in the same interval. Since the climate conditions with simultaneous high precipitation and temperature of the mid‐Holocene are the most recent paleoclimate analog for future warming, we argue that the humid and warm conditions expected under future global warming on the Loess Plateau might lead to an increase in the grass rather than trees.

“…on many locations throughout the world (Ali et al 2018;Dioha and Kumar 2020). Climate extremes may have much greater impacts under global warming changes in rainfall, temperature, monsoon timing, extreme events, agricultural production, limited water resources, restored vegetation and soil erosion (Liu et al 2020;Deng et al 2021;Ren et al 2022;Fulekar and Kale 2010;Zhang et al 2020). Over time, temperatures have risen in several Indian cities.…”

The article provides a long-term trend analysis of the Kesinga catchment daily gridded rainfall at a (0.25°*0.25°) high spatial resolution from the years 1901 to 2020 (120 years). The trend in seasonal and annual rainfall was therefore detected using nonparametric statistical tests spearman’s rho and Mann-Kendall, smoothing curve, Sen’s slope test, and plot of innovative rend analysis. The results showed that statistically significant trends (SSTs) had a pattern with both positive (increasing) and negative (decreasing) trends, with positive and negative trends evident in the winter and negative trends shown in the monsoon, PREMON, and annual seasons. The middle of the study area revealed the highest negative trend and the lower Kesinga catchment showed the lowest negative annual rainfall trend. The entire Kesinga catchment, the seasonal data and annual rainfall both showed statistically significant and non-significant patterns. Consistently, the MK and SR tests were both conducted at the validated significance level. In various contexts, the massive trend that has occurred with statistical significance were negative (70%). If the current pattern continues in the future, then there will be a scarcity of water and more strain on the control of water resources at the given grids in corresponding temporal scales.
