Disentangling climate change trends in Australian streamflow
The effect of climate change on water resources has been an area of continued research, especially in Australia. Previous studies have suggested significant trends in rainfall, and these are amplified causing larger changes in streamflow.

ABSTRACT Flooding remains one of the most critical natural hazards threatening livelihoods, infrastructure, and ecological systems in Ethiopia's highland landscapes. This study presents a rigorously integrated, multi‐criteria flood risk assessment that combines the Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) with GIS‐based spatial modeling to delineate ...

Abstract Climate change, expanding human ignitions, and increased fuels from fire exclusion are driving increases in area burned and fire severity in dry conifer forests of the western United States. Increasing area burned is occurring against the backdrop of a large fire deficit caused by over a century of fire exclusion.

Graphical abstract summarizing the modelling experiments used to quantify streamflow elasticity to changes and temporal redistribution of precipitation across South America, highlighting stronger effects of seasonal redistribution and larger responses in humid climates. ABSTRACT This study examines the sensitivity of mean, high and low streamflows (i.e.

This study evaluates the impact of climate change (CC) on runoff and hydrological drought trends in the Hablehroud river basin in central Iran. We used a daily time series of minimum temperature (Tmin), maximum temperature (Tmax), and precipitation (PCP)

Spatial variability in surface water activation and persistence decreased with ongoing drought. The importance of landscape attributes in explaining surface water presence decreased throughout the drought. Flow activation events after several years of drought were more closely associated with precipitation event characteristics than antecedent storage ...

Evolution of flood generating processes under climate change in France [PDF]
The impact of climate change on floods varies across regions, and observed trends in flood characteristics are often explained by differential changes in the processes that cause flooding.

Spatial and temporal streamflow trends in northern taiwan
Streamflow is an important factor in the study of water resource management, floods, and droughts. Dramatic climate change has created extreme rainfall distributions, making the study of streamflow trends and variability even more crucial. In this study,
