Understanding the variations of streamflow of rivers is an important prerequisite for designing hydraulic structures as well as managing surface water resources in basins. An overview of the impact of climate change on the streamflow in the Hablehroud River, the main river of a semi-arid basin in north-central Iran, is provided. Using the LARS-WG statistical downscaling model, the outputs of Ha...

In South Korea, flood damage mainly occurs around rivers; thus, it is necessary to determine the optimal design frequency for river basins prevent damage. However, there are not enough studies showing effect of climate change on hydrologic frequency. Therefore, estimate according future scenarios, this study examined urban flooding area and extreme rainfall that can in future. After estimating ...

In recent years, forest fires frequency and intensity has increased, causing a new awareness about their impact not only on vegetation, but also on hydrological regime. Changes in vegetation influence the processes of interception and evapotranspiration, seriously affecting the hydrological cycle. Forest fires can also affect hydrological processes indirectly, altering the hydraulic properties ...

it is increasingly recognized that the land-use change, especially urbanization has influenced hydrological attributes intensely. but in most urban designs, flood prediction is considered through type of land use (residential, industrial, and so on) and density. however, experiences show that this method has not been very successful. as a result, the present study aims to investigate and explor...

In this study, an integrated system for the comprehensive analysis of climate change, runoff, reservoir operation, and power generation was developed. In order to apply reliable climate change scenarios to the Geum River Basin, we applied representative concentration pathway (RCP) scenarios adopted by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change for its fifth assessment report in 2014 to the s...
