Implications of future climate on water availability in the western Canadian river basins
Abstract
ABSTRACT Precipitation, temperature, and evaporative demand are the most dominant factors affecting water availability in a region. This study examines projected changes in these hydro‐climatic variables over western Canada under two greenhouse gas emissions scenarios using statistically downscaled, high resolution climate data generated by six Global Climate Models ( GCMs ) from the latest Coupled Model Intercomparison Project ( CMIP5 ). …
