- Title
Redefine Water Infrastructure Adaptation to a Nonstationary Climate.
- Authors
Yang, Y. Jeffrey
- Abstract
The author offers his views on whether climate change is tangible for consideration in water engineering and planning variables, as well as how to manage the risk arising from hydroclimatic projection uncertainties. He believes that in order to develop actionable science for adaptation, the magnitude and frequency of hydroclimatic changes using climate model simulations or statistical analysis of historical analysis or both should be defined. He also calls for the need to improve the aging water infrastructures.
