Adapting to extreme events: small drinking water system manager perspectives on the 2012-2016 California Drought

Meghan Klasic et al.

Summary: This study documents the experiences of small drinking water system managers during a severe drought in the Southwestern USA from 2012-2016. The analysis reveals that the impacts, responses, and challenges faced by these systems differ based on their size and water sources. Common disadvantages hindering drought resilience and climate adaptation include limited capacity, financial burdens, lack of consumer awareness, and challenges to consolidation. The study emphasizes the need for greater attention to the planning and support of small water systems.

Revealing the Circulation Pattern Most Conducive to Precipitation Extremes in Henan Province of North China

Sihan Zhang et al.

Summary: This study investigates the relationship between large-scale circulation patterns and precipitation extremes in Henan province, China. The fifth pattern (P5) is found to have the highest frequency and largest intensity of daily precipitation extremes, and most of the days during the two catastrophic events belong to P5. The larger intensity is attributed to stronger ascending motions.

Attribution of climate change and human activities to streamflow variations with a posterior distribution of hydrological simulations

Xiongpeng Tang et al.

Summary: This study proposes a new framework for quantifying the contribution rate of climate change and human activities to watershed streamflow changes. By considering the uncertainty of hydrological simulations, the framework accurately quantifies the impact of climate change and human activities on streamflow changes. Applied in a case study in the Lancang River basin in China, the framework has been proven effective.

Impacts of climate change and human activities on runoff change in a typical arid watershed, NW China

Dongxiang Xue et al.

Summary: The study found a significant declining trend in annual runoff in the middle and lower reaches of the Shiyang River Basin, with a noticeable recovery trend after the implementation of the Comprehensive Treatment Program in 2007. Human activities had a high contribution to runoff reduction, with varying contributions in different variation periods, and agricultural irrigation was identified as the main factor in reducing runoff.

Derivation of the relative contributions of the climate change and human activities to mean annual streamflow change

Yin Tang et al.

Summary: The study integrates the water balance equation with the Budyko framework to attribute streamflow changes to climate change and anthropogenic activities. Results show that observed streamflow changes are mainly due to anthropogenic activities, with some contributions from changes in precipitation. The rapid development of water infrastructure is reported as an important factor.

Projecting Hydrological Responses to Climate Change Using CMIP6 Climate Scenarios for the Upper Huai River Basin, China

Guodong Bian et al.

Summary: The study combines climate scenarios, hydrological models, and flood frequency analysis to analyze changes in future runoff and flood in the upper Huai River basin. Results suggest that future floods may occur more frequently, indicating an urgent need for appropriate measures to increase social resilience to warming climate in the region.
