Climate Change Impacts: An Assessment for Water Resources Planning and Management in the Pacific Northwest of the U.S

Climate Change Scenarios for Pacific Northwest Water Planning Studies: Motivation, Methodologies, and a User's Guide to Applications

Designing Appropriate Linkages Between Hydrologic Research and Water Planning Studies Potentially significant changes in regional climate over the time horizon for water resources planning may create new challenges for risk assessment and the development of appropriate adaptation strategies. An important first step in assessing vulnerabilities to an altered climate (and ultimately creating viab...

Assessment of impacts of future climate change on water resources of the Hulu Langat basin using the swat model

Investigation of Climate Change Effect on Drought Characteristics in the Future Period using the HadCM3 model (Case Study: Khoy Station, Northwest of Iran)

     Investigation of drought event has a great importance in the natural resources and water resources management and planning. In this research, the effect of the climate change on drought characteristics in Khoy station was investigated using the HadCM3 model under B2 scenario. The statistical downscaling was executed using SDSM 4.2.9 and observed daily precipitation, observed predictors and...

ارزیابی اثرات تغییر اقلیم بر رواناب با استفاده از مدل هیدرولوژیکی - توزیعی WetSpa با رویکرد احتمالاتی و تحلیل عدم قطعیت (مطالعه‌ی موردی: حوضه‌ی رود زرد واقع در استان خوزستان)

Abstract This study examines the effects of climate change on runoff in the Yellow River basin in Khuzestan province. In this study, the combination of 14 general circulation models under two emission scenarios A2 and B1 were used for simulating the climatic variables in the next period (2025-2054) compared to the baseline period (1971-2000). The weighting method of mean observed temperature...
