书目名称 | Water Resources Research in Northwest China | 编辑 | Yaning Chen | 视频video | | 概述 | Covers a geographic region whose arid climate has attracted international notice.Explores water resources in the context of climate change in an already dry region.The contributors are leading scholar | 图书封面 |  | 描述 | .This book examines the possible impacts of climate change on hydrology and water resources in the vast arid region of Northwest China, which is one of the world’s largest arid places..The first chapter offers an introductory discussion of the physical geography and socioeconomic conditions in the region. Chapters 2 through 7 discuss the climate system and hydrologic system changes in the region, and assess some implications of these changes in relation to potential evapotranspiration, the hydrological cycle and spatiotemporal variations of the snow cover and glaciers as measured via remote sensing, geographic information systems, and statistical analysis. Chapters 8 and 9 focus on model description and experimental design for interpreting the hydro-climatic process, emphasizing the integration of water, climate, and land ecosystems through field observations and computer-based simulations. Chapter 10 examines some extreme hydrological events and presents a study using the historical trend method to investigate the spatial and temporal variability of changing temperature and precipitation extremes in the hyper-arid region of Northwest China..A concluding chapter discusses possible | 出版日期 | Book 2014 | 关键词 | Climate change Northwest China; Extreme hydroclimatological events; Glacier change and snow cover; Hydr | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-94-017-8017-9 | isbn_softcover | 978-94-024-0303-9 | isbn_ebook | 978-94-017-8017-9 | copyright | Springer Science+Business Media Dordrecht 2014 |
