Has climate change altered river flows at a global scale? – EurekAlert
The pervasive fingerprint of anthropogenic climate change is apparent in river flow at a global scale, according to a new study.
The pervasive fingerprint of anthropogenic climate change is apparent in river flow at a global scale, according to a new study. While anthropogenic climate change has had quantifiable and profound effects on various Earth systems, including the global water cycle, evidence for its role in the observed changes in river flow and hydrological extremes recorded worldwide remains uncertain. Lukas Gudmundsson and colleagues analyzed thousands of time series of low, mean and high river flows from 7,250…
