Managing Water Resources in the West under Conditions of Climate Uncertainty : A Proceedings
National Research Council, Division on Earth and Life Studies, Environment and Resources Commission on Geosciences, Committee on Climate Uncertainty and Water Resources Management, National Academy of Sciences,
The question of whether the earth's climate is changing in some significant human-induced way remains a matter of much debate. But the fact that climate is variable over time is well known. These two elements of climatic uncertainty affect water resources planning and management in the American West. Managing Water Resources in the West Under Conditions of Climate Uncertainty examines the scientific basis for predictions of climate change, the implications of climate uncertainty for water resources management, and the management options available for responding to climate variability and potential climate change.
