“…Increasing global average temperatures, the rise in sea levels, changes in eco-systems, and adverse impacts on human health are the key ill-impacts. The countries have to face some of the climate risks such as rising sea levels threatens coastal cities; changes to the monsoon rainfall and a significant reduction in agricultural output [1].…”

Impact of climate change is very complex because it occurs in various sector of live such as health, agriculture, forestry and transportation. Extreme weather is one of climate change effect, that is a weather condition or phenomenon above normal that occurs in a particular area with short term duration, for instance average temperature condition in some place is 33 0 C then change dramatically to 33-47 °C with rainfall greater than 100 mm and wind speed more than 34 knot. Extreme Value Theory is one of statistical methods which is used for the description of rare events. This research evaluates the performance of Block Maxima approach for modelling average temperature in East Java and estimate how high return level of average temperature will be happened in 100 months later.

This two-dimensional study makes significant incursions into the healthenvironment literature by interrogating whether non-renewable energy moderates the impact of environmental degradation on mortality rates. It further aligns with the 2030 United Nations Sustainable Development Goals and 11, which aim to ensure healthy lives and promote well-being for all at all ages and make cities and human settlements inclusive, safe, resilient and sustainable. It contributes to the health-environment literature by investigating the intrinsic relationships among mortality rates, carbon emissions (environmental degradation), and non-renewable energy consumption. The study uses an unbalanced sample of 42 Asia and Pacific countries to determine (1) whether carbon emissions exaggerate the incidence of mortality rates and (2) if the interaction of non-renewable energy with carbon emissions CAS Article Google Scholar

There is evidence that Nigeria is already experiencing environmental challenges attributed to climate change (CC) and its impacts. This has clearly highlighted the need for knowledge-based strategies to help plan adequate mitigation and adaptation measures for the country. One of the basic requirements to ensure such strategies is the development of a database of national CC research. This will aid in the assessment of past and present scientific publications from which directions for future study can be mapped. The present study used standard, systematic, and bibliographic literature reviews to analyse the trend, focus, spatial variability, and effectiveness of published research on CC impacts in Nigeria. Four thematic areas of CC impact research were defined: Agriculture, Environment, Human and Multi-disciplinary study. A total of 701 articles were found to be relevant and the review shows that CC impacts and adaptations in the literature vary across research categories and locations. The period between 2011 (68 studies) and 2015 (80 studies) showed a tremendous rise in CC impact research with a peak in 2014 (84 studies). Studies in the agriculture category had the highest publications in 23 States of Nigeria. The review revealed three research gaps: (1) lack of research that investigated the magnitude of present and potential future impacts in the aquatic environment (2) little attention on CC impacts and adaptation in the Northern regions of Nigeria (3) absence of study investigating the effects of multiple variables of CC at the same time. The findings suggest that it would be useful to advance CC research in Nigeria beyond perceptive approaches to more quantitative ones. This is particularly important for highly vulnerable animals, crops, locations, and for better planning of adaptation strategies.
