“…Even the sign of projected water supply changes is not consistent across different models and simulations. Much of the uncertainty derives from the wide spread of projections of regional precipitation change in southwestern mountains (Dunbar et al, 2022; IPCC, 2021; Udall & Overpeck, 2017). Reducing the uncertainty in future projections of streamflow is of critical importance for guiding difficult policy discussions as water authorities consider the possibility of significant declines in water supplies across the semiarid west (Lehner et al, 2019; Samimi et al, 2022; Udall & Overpeck, 2017; Wheeler et al, 2022).…”
