Depletion of groundwater is accelerated due to an increase in water demand for
applications in urbanized areas, agriculture sectors, and energy extraction, and dwindling …

There is now a large published literature on the strengths and weaknesses of downscaling
methods for different climatic variables, in different regions and seasons. However, little …

Six approaches for downscaling climate model outputs for use in hydrologic simulation were
evaluated, with particular emphasis on each method's ability to produce precipitation and …

The potential effects of climate change on the hydrology and water resources of the
Colorado River basin are assessed by comparing simulated hydrologic and water resources …

To assess the influence of global climate change at the regional scale, we examine past and
future changes in key climate, hydrological, and biophysical indicators across the US …

The magnitude of future climate change depends substantially on the greenhouse gas
emission pathways we choose. Here we explore the implications of the highest and lowest …

To investigate possible future climate changes in California, a set of climate change model
simulations was selected and evaluated. From the IPCC Fourth Assessment, simulations of …

Recent studies have shown substantial declines in snow water equivalent (SWE) over much
of the western United States in the last half century, as well as trends toward earlier spring …

Pacific Northwest (PNW) hydrology is particularly sensitive to changes in climate because
snowmelt dominates seasonal runoff, and temperature changes impact the rain/snow …

Quantifying the hydrological response to an increased atmospheric CO2 concentration and
climate change is critical for the proper management of water resources within agricultural …
