Here, we present a global systematic review (83 peer-reviewed articles) that assesses different water-related stressors and the adaptation responses to manage water stress in major glaciated mountain regions. Globally, agriculture (42%), tourism (12%), hydropower (8%) and health and safety (4...

2 highlights that human-induced water stress significantly exacerbates climate impacts on water availability. While human water use can cause or intensify water stress, if managed well, it allows societies to react and adapt to the projected conditions (blue and green regions in Fig. 2). The ...

Many recent studies have demonstrated that CO2 increase is driving the climate in Mediterranean areas towards important changes, mainly represented by a temperature increase and a contemporaneous rainfall reduction. Starting from this premise, the primary aim of the present study is to investigate the ...

A Stress Test for Climate Change Impacts on Water Security: a CRIDA Case StudyA Stress Test for Climate Change Impacts on Water Security: a CRIDA Case StudySince the impacts of climate change will be felt most directly through changes in water availability and water security, adequate tools are...
As a least developed country, Cambodia has limited infrastructure to respond to the ongoing and anticipated stress imposed by climate change. This article uses existing publications to examine the potential impact of climate change on water resources and reviews possible adaptation and mitigation ...
"Since this north-south disparity is expected to be amplified by climate warming in the future, adaptation policies for sustainable water resource management are greatly needed in downstream countries," said co-author Piao Shilong, also a researcher at Peking University. ...
