“…Projected changes include changes in climatological precipitation patterns, precipitation types, evaporation amounts, soil moisture availability, and discharge levels (e.g., Berghuijs et al, 2014;Held & Soden, 2006;Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, 2013;Milly et al, 2005;Wanders & Wada, 2015a).

These extreme events can have severe negative impacts on societies and ecosystems.…”
