Flowing forward : freshwater ecosystem adaptation to climate change in water resources management and biodiversity conservation (English)

The impacts of climate change on freshwater ecosystems will be complex and hard to predict. These impacts will lead to changes in the quantity, quality, and timing of water. Changes will be driven by shifts in the volume, seasonality, and intensity of precipitation; shifts from snow to rainfall; alteration of surface runoff and groundwater recharge patterns; shifts in the timing of snowpack melting; changes in evapotranspiration; increased air and...
