Climate change impact assessments
Climate change and climatic extremes increasingly exert pressure on precious and vulnerable water resources and the aquatic ecosystems that they support.
When making water management plans that may take years to implement, it is crucially important to factor in the expected implications of climate change if such plans are to result in the desired outcomes for water quantity and quality.
Our clients and partners typically include water managers that are responsible for a sustainable use and management of water resources, industries that may be dependent on water resources over a long-term multi-year perspective and the research sector that continues to work towards a better understanding of the impacts of climate change on water systems and their ecosystems.
At WaterITech, we are world-leading in climate change impact modeling.
We have many years of expertise in the use of climate projections when applying advanced hydrological and water quality models.
We can acquire the latest climate model projections for any location in the world from globally available data repositories and run these through our advanced impact models. This process allows us to assess the impacts of expected climate change on water resources in your area for the coming decades.
