This study aimed to mitigate the adverse effects of global warming by applying severe shoot topping (SST) to grapevines in a semi-arid climate. A three-year study (2018-2020) was performed to investigate the impact of SST on wine flavor composition. Results showed that SST effectively delayed the grape harvest date, which was more evident in the dry and warm vintage (7-11 d). SST significantly increased the concentration of myricetin-based flavonols in wines which were 18% higher than in untreated wines. Through orthogonal partial least squares discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA), SST wines were characterized by more abundant phenolic compounds and higher sensory scores. The carry-over effect of applying SST in consecutive years in the same vines could be reflected in wine color. The correlations among wine metabolites, color and aroma parameters, and sensory parameters were evaluated through multiple analyses. This study provided an idea for delaying grape ripening in a semi-arid climate.

of long-term and future climate variability is crucial for impact assessment studies in drought-prone areas like the Giba basin in northern Ethiopia. This study has applied the statistical downscaling model (SDSM) and (De Martonne and Pinna combinative) aridity index methods to evaluate the climate system of the Giba basin. Historical data (1961-2019) from seven meteorological stations and global grided data were used for future climate projections (2020-2100) under the three emission scenarios (RCPs 2.

Background: Wheat-maize cropping systems in semi-arid regions are expected to be affected by climate change in the future, which is alarming for global food security, environmental sustainability and socioeconomic development. Therefore, management practices like optimized plant geometry and fertilization need to be explored to counter these expected threats. To do this, the APSIM model was calibrated using 5-year data (from 2017/2018 to 2022) regarding yield, biomass, plant height, emergence, anthesis and crop maturity of wheat and maize from farmer fields.

Enhancing the understanding of the rainfall-runoff temporal dynamics in semi-arid and semi-humid regions is crucial for flood disaster mitigation. Loess Plateau is a unique environment within semi-arid and semi-humid regions, characterized by its deep loess soil, prevalent short-duration intense rainfall, and changes in underlying surface conditions. In this research, 25 catchments from the Loess Plateau were chosen to examine the temporal variations in event runoff responses across different time scales.

Extreme climatic events, such as drought, can significantly alter belowground microbial diversity and species interactions, leading to unknown consequences for ecosystem functioning. Here, we simulated a drought gradient by removing 30 %, 50 %, and 70 % of precipitation in a semi-arid grassland over five years. We assessed the effects of drought on bacterial and fungal diversity, as well as on their species interactions.
