river discharge
Quantifying uncertainty in the impacts of climate change on river discharge in sub-catchments of the Yangtze and Yellow River Basins, China
... Abstract. Quantitative evaluations of the impacts of climate change on water resources are primarily constrained by un- certainty in climate projections from GCMs. In this study we assess uncertainty in the impacts of ...
