Abstract:
Objective : According to recursive extraordinary climate events, there has been a lot of studies on climate change. Even though there is much variability between scenarios and model outputs, commonly they show potential threat to available water resources in the future. However, on the way from the numerical simulation of climate change to quantification of the streamflow and water resources regime, there are so many uncertainties and varieties of different approaches. In our study, we are aiming to suggest the reasonable procedure to assess the future available water resources using downscaling or disaggregation, distributed rainfall-runoff model, intergrated long-term planning scheme for water resources, etc.
