Abstract/Summary

Climate change will increase temperatures and change rainfall across the UK. In turn, this will modify patterns of river flow and groundwater recharge, affecting the availability of water. There have been many studies of the impact of climate change on river flows in the UK, but coverage has been uneven and methods have varied. Consequently, it has been very difficult to compare different locations and hard to identify appropriate adaptation responses.
