Hydrological Impacts of Climate Change on Inflows to Perth, Australia
The effects of climate change due to increasing atmospheric CO2 on the major tributaries to the Swan River (Perth, Western Australia) have been investigated. The climate scenarios are based on results from General Circulation Models (GCMs) and 1000 year time series are produced using a stochastic weather generator. The hydrological implications of these scenarios are then examined using a conce...
متن کاملPublic Education, Technological Change and Economic Prosperity
We introduce publicly funded education in R&D-based economic growth theory. The framework allows us to i) incorporate a realistic process of human capital accumulation for industrialized countries, ii) reconcile R&D-based growth theory with the empirical evidence on the relationship between economic prosperity and population growth, iii) revise the policy invariance result of semi-endogenous gr...
متن کاملHydrological Impacts of Climate Change
The increasing rate of the global surface temperature will have a significant impact on local hydrological regimes and water resources, which leads to the assessment of the climate change impacts. Main parameters that are closely related to the climate change are temperature and precipitation. Therefore, there is a growing need for an integrated analysis that can quantify the impacts of climate...
متن کاملHydrological simulation and prediction for environmental change
A strong environmental change has been recognized in China with the impacts of climate change and intensive human activities on land use. In this paper, first environmental changes in China, such as those caused by human activities, land use, climate change, and social and economic development, are presented. Secondly, the hydrological prediction models and systems and their application in Chin...
متن کاملHydrological Response to Human Activities and Climate Change in the Ghaleh-Shahrokh Watershed
Determining the relative contributions of human activities and climate change to variations of runoff in basin is very important for sustainable management of water resources. In this study, seven methods were used to determine these relative contributions in the Ghaleh-Shahrokh watershed as the main upper catchment of Zayandeh-Roud River. These seven methods can be divided into two main catego...
