Journal ArticleDOI
Global flood risk under climate change
Yukiko Hirabayashi,Roobavannan Mahendran,Sujan Koirala,Lisako Konoshima,Dai Yamazaki,Satoshi Watanabe,Hyungjun Kim,Shinjiro Kanae +7 more
TL;DR: This article used several climate models to estimate the global risk of flooding at the end of the century and showed that vulnerability is dependent on the degree of warming and the interannual variability in precipitation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Multimodel assessment of water scarcity under climate change
Jacob Schewe,Jens Heinke,Jens Heinke,Dieter Gerten,Ingjerd Haddeland,Nigel W. Arnell,Douglas B. Clark,Rutger Dankers,Stephanie Eisner,Balázs M. Fekete,Felipe J. Colón-González,Simon N. Gosling,Hyungjun Kim,Xingcai Liu,Yoshimitsu Masaki,Felix T. Portmann,Felix T. Portmann,Yusuke Satoh,Tobias Stacke,Qiuhong Tang,Yoshihide Wada,Dominik Wisser,Torsten Albrecht,Katja Frieler,Franziska Piontek,Lila Warszawski,Pavel Kabat +26 more
TL;DR: It is shown that climate change is likely to exacerbate regional and global water scarcity considerably and GHM uncertainty is particularly dominant in many regions affected by declining water resources, suggesting a high potential for improved water resource projections through hydrological model development.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hydrological droughts in the 21st century, hotspots and uncertainties from a global multimodel ensemble experiment
Christel Prudhomme,Ignazio Giuntoli,Emma L. Robinson,Douglas B. Clark,Nigel W. Arnell,Rutger Dankers,Balázs M. Fekete,Wietse Franssen,Dieter Gerten,Simon N. Gosling,Stefan Hagemann,David M. Hannah,Hyungjun Kim,Yoshimitsu Masaki,Yusuke Satoh,Tobias Stacke,Yoshihide Wada,Dominik Wisser,Dominik Wisser +18 more
TL;DR: This study demonstrates that different representations of terrestrial water-cycle processes in GIMs are responsible for a much larger uncertainty in the response of hydrological drought to climate change than previously thought.
Journal ArticleDOI
A physically based description of floodplain inundation dynamics in a global river routing model
TL;DR: In this article, a new global river routing model, CaMa-Flood, is proposed, which explicitly parameterizes the subgrid-scale topography of a floodplain, thus describing floodplain inundation dynamics.
Journal ArticleDOI
Water scarcity hotspots travel downstream due to human interventions in the 20th and 21st century
Ted Veldkamp,Ted Veldkamp,Yoshihide Wada,Jeroen C. J. H. Aerts,Jeroen C. J. H. Aerts,Petra Döll,Simon N. Gosling,Junguo Liu,Yoshimitsu Masaki,Yoshimitsu Masaki,Taikan Oki,Sebastian Ostberg,Sebastian Ostberg,Yadu Pokhrel,Yusuke Satoh,Hyungjun Kim,Philip J. Ward +16 more
TL;DR: It is shown that HI drastically change the critical dimensions of water scarcity, aggravating water scarcity for 8.8% of the global population but alleviating it for another 8.3% (6.4–15.8%).
