A Dynamic Assessment of Water Scarcity Risk and Climate Change Adaptation in the Lower Brahmaputra River Basin
For assessing vulnerability and risk of water resources system and defining climate change adaptation policies and measures, the integrated contribution of several disciplines is required, enabling a comprehensive, but also complex, dynamic description of present state and future trends. But, the notions of vulnerability and risk and the approaches for their assessment, have found different and...
متن کاملImpact of Water Scarcity on the Fenhe River Basin and Mitigation Strategies
This study produced a drought map for the Fenhe River basin covering the period from 150 BC to 2012 using regional historical drought records. Based on meteorological and hydrological features, the characteristics and causes of water scarcity in the Fenhe River basin were examined, along with their impact on the national economy and ecological environment. The effects of water scarcity in the b...
متن کاملAn Interactive Web-Based Geovisual Analytics Tool to Explore Water Scarcity in Niger River Basin
Assessing the needs for adaptation and mitigation strategies to climate change and variability in Niger River Basin is a key for future development in Western Africa. There are two major challenges in terms of the assessment: the first is that future projections in water availability based on the historical trends are hard to assess under uncertainty, and the second is that human activities and...
متن کاملAGNPS and SWAT Model Calibration for Hydrologic Modelling of an Ecuadorian River Basin under Data Scarcity
Chemical fate assessment in a river basin requires flow and sediment characterization that can be performed by continuous field measurements or modelling. Once this step is completed, the environmental modelling can be started. In current assessments done in Ecuador, field data are not easily available and are also scarce. Therefore, the use of models is a challenge. Two models, AGNPS and SWAT,...
متن کاملWater access, water scarcity, and climate change.
This article investigates the approaches of the various discourses operating in the water sector and how they address the issues of scarcity and equitable access under projected climate change impacts. Little synergy exists between the different approaches dealing with these issues. Whilst being a sustainable development and water resources management issue, a holistic view of access, scarcity ...
