the impact of population growth on domestic water demand from taleghan reservoir under climate change scenarios

population growth can greatly impact on greenhouse gas emission pattern in the future. considering the importance of population growth in climate change studies, the present research concentrates on the population growth of the middle east in the late 21th century based on the iiasa population scenarios. under the projections of a1-b1 scenario, the world’s population will grow up to 8.7 billion...

Assessing the Impacts of Climate Change, Urbanization, and Filter Strips on Water Quality Using SWAT

Precipitation changes and urban growth are two factors altering the state of water quality. Changes in precipitation will alter the amount and timing of flows, and the corresponding sediment and nutrient dynamics. Meanwhile, densification associated with urban growth will create more impervious surfaces which will alter sediment and nutrient loadings. Land and water managers rely on models to d...

Impact of Climate Change on Water Resources in Agriculture 7 Forests , Land Use Change , and Water

A forest is a biotic community predominated by trees and woody vegetation that are signifi cantly taller, greater, thicker, and deeper than other vegetation types and generally covers a large area (Chang, 2003). Forests cover approximately 26.2% of the world, with 45.7% of Latin America and the Caribbean being covered, 35% of East Asia and the Pacifi c, and 35% of the European Union. Canada and...

Climate Change Impact on Water Resources and Life Quality

The climate changes represent one of the major challenges in our century with major impact upon human being. This is the reason for which the study of the effects brought about by the climatic changes is one of the most current themes on international level. According to the meteorological events of the last years, Romania will be one of the most affected countries by the climate changes effect...
