Article Abstract
Analysing the link between terrestrial ecosystem productivity (i.e., Net Primary Productivity: NPP) and extreme climate conditions is vital in the context of increasing threats due to climate change. To reveal the impact of changing extreme conditions on NPP, a copula-based probabilistic model was developed, and the study was carried out over 25 river basins and 10 vegetation types of India. Further, the resiliency of the terrestrial ecosystems to sustain the extreme disturbances was evaluated at annual scale, monsoon, and non-monsoon seasons. The results showed, 15 out of 25 river basins were at high risks, and terrestrial ecosystems in only 5 river basins were resilient to extreme climatic conditions. Moreover, at least 50% area under 4 out of 10 vegetation cover types was found to be facing high chances of a drastic reduction in NPP, and 8 out of 10 vegetation cover types were non-resilient with the changing extreme climate conditions.

Dissolved oxygen (DO) is a key water quality indicator reflecting river health. Modeling and understanding the spatiotemporal dynamics of DO and its influencing factors are crucial for effective river management. Machine learning (ML) models have gained popularity in water quality prediction; however, their accuracy strongly depends on the predictor variables.

Catastrophic climate events such as floods significantly impact infrastructure, agriculture, and the economy. The lower Gandak River basin in India is particularly flood-prone, with Bihar experiencing annual losses of life and property due to massive flooding. Identifying flood-prone zones in this region is essential.

Background: Nepal is highly affected by climate change, experiencing glacier melting, untimely rainfall, floods, landslides, forest fires, and droughts, which collectively impact over 10 million people. There is a larger impact of climate change on human health, but its impact on women's and girls' sexual and reproductive health and rights is yet to be explored. Thus, this study aims to understand the linkages between climate change and the unique impact on gender and sexual, and reproductive health and rights (SRHR).
