“…SWAT is a powerful tool because of its ability to assess the streamflow in a basin with hydrologic complexity in time series as well as ability to identify spatial hydrologic conditions efficiently, such as specifying subbasins by spatial simulation [4]. Therefore, SWAT has been selected to assess hydrologic conditions for flash floods in many places all over the world [5,6].…”

Flash flood typically occurs in the wet season caused by heavy rain from upstream to downstream and land use changes. This research mainly aims to apply SWAT model to assess the variation of streamflow in Loei Basin, Northeastern Thailand by comparing the daily streamflow during flash flood in the rainy season in the years 2002, 2011, and 2017. This included considering the three different time periods of land use change patterns input to SWAT to assess the impact on streamflow. The result revealed that daily SWAT streamflow simulation compared to data obtained from KH58A station in 2011 was reliable as could be seen from acceptable R2 and PBIAS. In terms of the tendency of land use change, conventional agricultural was replaced with rubber plantation, sugarcane, and urbanization. From this situation, most flood risk areas occur along the mainstream from middle to northern of basin outlet, including being a municipal community area with a high density of residents. It is expected to be a risky area affected by the flood situation. The result of this research can be used as a guideline for land use and water resource management when encountering sudden changes in hydrologic conditions in the wet season.

“…If there are number of wells in a region, fluctuations in runoff and groundwater extraction can depletion aquifers, resulting in a detrimental effect on stream flows throughout seasonal or long-term droughts [27]. While anthropogenic changes to med-catchments tend to exacerbate the regular seasonal variation in discharge, such influences can be mitigated by other anthropogenic activities but less information is available for natural lakes and watersheds [28,29]. River flows can be increased by groundwater recharge flows or sewerage system plant flows during the dry season, maintaining certain rivers flowing that would otherwise dry up [30].…”

The average annual temperature, precipitation, and evaporation patterns are some of the characteristics which indicate to a globe where climate is rapidly changing. It remains uncertain regarding how this rapid climate change will impact freshwater biota; however the consequences could be absolutely catastrophic. It is urgently needed to better adapt and maintain the fragile system that comprises the Mediterranean ecosystems. Water shortages and changes in the land use can impact water quality and the watershed's ecosystem. Changes in temperature and precipitation trends can increase the intensity of land use, the increase of water depletion, and the degradation of water quality. The effects of climate change on eco hydrology change runoff, evaporation, surface storage, and soil moisture, that all have immediate effects on the biota and biodiversity of region. It is supported by studies on eco hydrological impacts on local watersheds. The spatial pattern and surface water dynamics of watershed systems are utilized as a perspective using which to examine the hydrologic consequences. The impacts of climate change on rainfall, evaporation, soil humidity, lakes level, and quality of water, habitats, species migration, biodiversity, and economies have been investigated. The potential climatic impacts on watershed ecosystems are determined by a spatiotemporal assessment of variations in temperature and precipitation projections from a multimodal ensemble. The susceptibility of a watershed changed depending over its geographic region, terrain, and human influence. As such a manner of dealing with climate change, improving watershed systems could be beneficial. Various techniques have

“…The pattern of macrophyte abundance responds quickly to waterlevel and water quality changes and is a reliable indicator of stress (Manzoor et al 2021). The effects of water-level changes on macrophytes are known in cases of reservoir floodplains and shallow lakes (Bakker and Hilt 2016), but less information is available for natural lakes and watersheds (Soomro et al 2022). Low water levels also affect macrophyte abundance and patterns (Leira and Cantonati 2008).…”

Global warming is affecting animal populations worldwide, through chronic temperature increases and an increase in the frequency of extreme heatwave events. Reservoirs are essential for water security. All watersheds with reservoirs are impacted by their construction. These artificial ecosystems controlled by humans change considerably the natural terrestrial and aquatic ecosystem and systems and their biodiversity. The rapid increase in population growth, urbanization, and industrialization are accompanied by an increase in river discharges, which increases the total amount of pollutants. HMs contamination in aquatic environments, as well as the subsequent absorption of HMs into the food chain by aquatic creatures and people, endangers public health. Multiple uses of reservoirs promote benefits in terms of economic development, income, and employment. HMs in water can be ingested directly by aquatic species like fish and can also be ingested indirectly through the food chain; thus, it is much more important and required to conduct frequent monitoring of the aquatic environment. As a result, this review summarizes knowledge about the effects of cascade dams on river water temperature and increases on the stress physiology of fishes, and adaptation to climate change is also needed to produce more fish without global warming.
