Contents Notes | Introduction / Fai Fung, Ana Lopez, Mark New -- Weather and climate / Dáithí A. Stone, Reto Knutti -- Regional climate downscaling / Robert L. Wilby, Hayley J. Fowler -- Water for people : climate change and water availability / Glenn Watts -- Emerging approaches to climate risk management / Ana Lopez [and others] -- The case studies. Showing how new modeling techniques can elucidate links between climate, hydrology and water resources, this title discusses both strengths and limitations of models and how modeling can be used at different special scales. |
