Climate Impacts on the Water CycleLeung, L R
In this study, a data-driven approach employed by utilizing the product called JRC-Global surface water mapping layers V1.4 on the Google Earth Engine (GEE) to map and monitor the effects of climate change on surface water resources. Key climatic variabl
.The glacier ablation is accelerating,glacier melting water has been increasing year by year,and leading to the changes in the spatial and temporal distribution of water resources and the water cycle process change,will no doubt give a profound impact on social and economic development in the ...
Compounding Impacts of Human-Induced Water Stress and Climate Change on Water Availability The terrestrial phase of the water cycle can be seriously impacted by water management and human water use behavior (e.g., reservoir operation, and irrigation withdrawals). Here we outline a method for assess...
Humans and ecosystems are deeply connected to, and through, the hydrological cycle. However, impacts of hydrological change on social and ecological systems are infrequently evaluated together at the global scale. Here, we focus on the potential for soci
Mike Rivington, senior scientist at the James Hutton Institute in Britain, said the drought is "a warning sign" that water needs to be taken more seriously because of its impact on nature's ability to function and provide society with the necessities of life. ...
Increased impervious surface area is a consequence of urbanization, with correspondent and significant effects on the hydrologic cycle. It is intuitive that an increased proportion of impervious surface brings with it shorter lag times between onset of precipitation and subsequently higher runoff peaks and...
This report addresses the impacts of climate change on groundwater and adaptation options. The Earth's climate is projected to become warmer and more variable. Increased global temperatures are projected to affect the hydrologic cycle, leading to changes in precipitation patterns and increases in the...
The increased use of hydropower is currently driving the greatest surge in global dam construction since the mid-20th century, meaning that most major rivers on Earth are now dammed. Dams impede the flow of essential nutrients, including carbon, phosphor
