Very happy to see the first paper published by my PhD student Xinyue Zhang UNSW Climate Change Research Centre ARC Centre of Excellence for Climate Extremes. The good news is that less than 4% of drylands will desertify due to climate change (poor land use practices could still do it though) nature.com/articles/s4324…

Just published a new paper demonstrating a method to explicitly include observational uncertainty (and error) in model evaluation. Are you evaluating a model? You might find this method useful. UNSW Climate Change Research Centre Climate Systems Hub doi.org/10.1088/2515-7… via IOP Environment
