| Zusammenfassung |
| Changes in hydrological extremes become more significant in the climate change context.
Due to the increasing trends of floods in recent decades in Ukraine and accompanied with
high risk of social and economic loses, the potential changes in flood frequency
are of high importance. The problem of climate change impact on hydrological
extremes for Ukrainian region is not developed on sufficient level and more studies are
needed.
The projections of changes in floods associate with high uncertainties and depend of
climate scenarios. This study aims to evaluate the impact of climate change on hydrological
extreme events, using a set of 7 climate scenarios under RCP4.5 and RCP8.5 based on GCMs
that have been downscaled RCMs from IMPRESSIONS project, and detect the changes
using the eco-hydrological model SWIM in Upper Prut and Tisza River catchments. |
