Generation of High Resolution Scenarios for Climate Change Impacts on Water Resources (I): Climate Scenarios on Each Sub-basins

Regional climate change scenarios and their impacts on water requirements for wheat production in Iran

We simulate the effect of climate change on water requirements of cold seasonwheat in various climatic zones of Iran. The research considers both observedclimate (temperature and precipitation) changes during recent decades (1960-2009)based on instrumental records and projected future changes to 2100 based on theMAGICC/SCENGEN 5.3 compound model. 20 General Circulation models are usedbased on a...

Impacts of climate change on rainfall indices estimation in western sub-basins of Iran

New climate change scenarios

whaling in the Southern Ocean is problematic. " The Japanese are still out catching fairly significant numbers of whales, and not just minkes, though that's what they're meant to be focusing on, " he commented. " If they stuck to their targets, and did their whaling as they say they do when they're at the IWC meetings, then I think they might have a little more support. They'd also need to do t...

Impacts of Climate Change on Hydrology and Water Resources in the Boise and Spokane River Basins

In the Pacific Northwest, warming climate has resulted in a lengthened growing season, declining snowpack, and earlier timing of spring runoff. This study characterizes the impact of climate change in two basins in Idaho, the Spokane River and the Boise River Basins. We simulated the basin scale hydrology by coupling the downscaled precipitation and temperature outputs from a suite of global cl...

Prediction of Prediction of Climate Change Impacts on Kharkeh Dam Reservoir Inflows with Using of CMIP5-RCP Scenarios

The objective of this research was to investigate the effects of climate change on precipitation and temperature parameters of Karkheh Basin and inflow to Karkheh dam reservoir. This was conducted by applying 21 GCM models under CMIP5 scenarios. The error indices of R2, RMSE and MAE models with the observed precipitation and temperature data were examined to find the appropriate GCM model, MRI-...
