“…Changes in snow accumulation and melt regimes result in changes in the seasonal distribution of discharges, causing occasional problems to reservoir management (López-Moreno et al, 2004). According to climate change scenarios, water resources will be severely reduced in Spain, where the Ebro Valley will reduce runoff between 10 and 19% through the 21st century (Estrela et al, 2012). Similar values have been forecasted for the Euro-Mediterranean region (Santini et al, 2014).…”

“…No obstante, existe una alta incertidumbre respecto a los impactos del cambio climático en la respuesta hidrológica de las cuencas mediterráneas, debida a la elevada dispersión de las señales climáticas simuladas por diferentes modelos (Deidda et al, 2013;Girard et al, 2015). En cualquier caso, se espera que los impactos negativos del cambio climático afecten principalmente a las zonas semiáridas con escasez de agua y un balance frágil entre recursos hídricos y demandas (Estrela et al, 2012) El proceso más común para evaluar los impactos del cambio climático en los recursos hídricos combina el uso de proyecciones climáticas con la modelización hidrológica. Es posible identificar cuatro fases principales en este tipo de estudio: 1) construcción de escenarios de emisiones/concentraciones de gases de efecto invernadero; 2) modelización del clima global; 3) reescalado y corrección del sesgo de las proyecciones meteorológicas y; 4) estimación de impactos mediante modelos hidrológicos.…”

“…Several researches have evaluated the effects of climate change on river regimes in the Iberian Peninsula [10][11][12], but few studies have been conducted in North-Western Spain [13]. In this area, especially in Galicia, most rivers have little or no flow data available for such analyses.…”
