Hydrological change of runoff
Abstract
Climate change impact affects the hydrological regime. The key indicators are discharge (low, mean and high flow), snowcover duration and depth and soil moisture. In four test areas with varying meteorological and topographical boundaries (Bregenzerache, Obere Salzach, Traisen, Lavant) the potential change of the hydrological response will be investigated. In the current project the climate change scenarios are defined by the REMO-UBA climate model. Daily data of air temperature and rainfall are generated by a stochastic weather generator. These data serve as input for snowmelt model and a conceptual hydrological model. The models provide time series of a hundred year based on different climate scenarios. The results will be analysed and compared with the present state conditions.
