We used a terrestrial ecosystem process model, BIOME-BGC, to investigate historical climate change and fire disturbance effects on regional carbon and water budgets within a , km2 portion of the Canadian boreal forest. Historical patterns of increasing atmospheric CO2, climate change, and regional fire activity were used as model drivers to evaluate the relative effects of these impacts Abstract. This work addresses the impact of climate change on the hydrology of a catchment in the Mediterranean, a region that is highly susceptible to variations in rainfall and other components of the water budget. The assessment is based on a comparison of responses obtained from five hydrologic models implemented for the Rio Mannu catchment in southern Sardinia (Italy).

Projected climate changes for the 21st century may cause great uncertainties on the hydrology of a river basin. This study explored the impacts of climate change on the water balance and hydrological regime of the Jhelum River Basin using the Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT).
Two downscaling methods (SDSM, Statistical Downscaling Model and LARS-WG, Long Ashton Research Station Weather To assess the performance of NHSM in simulating discharges under the present climate it is forced by observed rainfall and potential evapotranspiration for the period – To simulate future discharges, NHSM meteorological forcing is derived from simulated series by three General Circulation Models (GCMs) under two SRES emission :// We used the climate records to drive an ecosystem process model, BIOME_BGC, to simulate the effects of climate change on the carbon and water balances of boreal forest ecosystems.

Many studies have been conducted for various crops. However, there is a lack of sufficient observational evidence on Groundwater pumping has caused marked aquifer storage declines over the past century. In addition to threatening the viability of groundwater-dependent economic activities, storage losses reshape the hydrologic landscape, shifting groundwater surface water exchanges and surface water availability.
A more comprehensive understanding of modern groundwater-depleted systems is needed as we strive 3. Observed and predicted climate change impacts on the Magdalen Islands.
Climate change can be defined as a difference of climate conditions over a given period, with respect to a reference period, due to natural or anthropogenic causes (Environment Canada, ). Simulating impacts of climate change on cotton yield and water requirement using RZWQM2.

ABSTRACT. Drought is a threat to food security and water availability in West Africa. As part of efforts to improve drought early warning systems, this study investigates the characteristics of West African droughts, evaluates the ability of CORDEX regional climate models to simulate the droughts and examines the impacts of future climate change (, under the scenario RCP45 projected climate changes and to identify potential climate change impacts.

Urquhart, in Reference Module in Earth Systems and Environmental Sciences, Climate Change. Climate change impacts Neotropical rainforests in obvious and obscure ways.
The most optimistic hope is that increased temperature may result in higher potential evapotranspiration if accompanied by stable or increased precipitation, allowing for greater carbon sequestration by ://. Climate change can have a considerable impact on the hydrological cycles mainly through the modification of evapotranspiration and precipitation [2], [3].
The alterations of evapotranspiration and precipitation can, at the extreme, demonstrate formations of severe droughts or major floods leading to significant impacts on the As it enables the understanding and the quantification of the transfer of water in ecosystems and from ecosystems to the atmosphere, evapotranspiration is a key component to assess climate impact on hydrology and agriculture.
In crop models, the estimation of the evapotranspiration rate requires first calculating potential or reference evapotranspiration from climate :// Attribution of future groundwater recharge to three climate-driven factors (rainfall, snowmelt, and evapotranspiration (ET)), as derived from the regression based on CESM-LE projections (
