Jieyang
China
Jieyang is projected to experience significant climate challenges, primarily characterized by heavy rainfall events and frequent heavy precipitation. These conditions will likely lead to increased flooding and waterlogging, threatening local infrastructure and livelihoods. Additionally, the city faces a heightened risk of arbovirus transmission, indicating a possible surge in diseases carried by vectors such as mosquitoes, which could impact public health. Furthermore, an elevated risk of malaria associated with shifting climate patterns suggests growing health vulnerabilities among the population. These intertwined climate hazards may exacerbate social and economic challenges, ultimately affecting community resilience and overall well-being. As these risks unfold, addressing them will be crucial for future sustainability and health in Jieyang.
Hazard Outlook
How will Jieyang's projected climate hazards compare to other cities under a 3.0°C future warming scenario?
Elevation
At 6 m elevation, Jieyang faces very high risk from coastal flooding and sea level rise.
Maximum Rainfall
Jieyang's projected maximum rainfall of 15 mm is among the highest of all cities globally.
Longest Heatwave
Jieyang may experience heatwaves lasting up to 5 days, higher than most other cities.
Heavy Rainfall Days
With 11 days of heavy rainfall expected, Jieyang ranks higher than most cities for extreme precipitation events.
Maximum Temperature
Jieyang's projected maximum temperature of 9.5°C is near the median of cities globally under a 3.0°C warming scenario.
Exposure Summary
Adaptation Priorities
Jieyang faces high exposure to elevation, max rain and elevated exposure to heatwave, heavy rain. These areas may warrant priority attention in adaptation planning.
