Abstract
Of considerable concern is the increase in atmospheric CO2 in recent years due to its influence on global climate. The studies so far have concentrated primarily on precipitation and air temperature changes from an assumed doubling in CO2 (the 2×CO2 scenario). For water resources, more specifically, climatic changes affect both quantity and quality. The effects on water quantity are presented in detail elsewhere in this volume and are not discussed here. The same applies also to other indirect substantial effects like changes in coastline, wetlands, etc., caused by sea level changes, flooding or erosion from coastal runoffs (Stakhiv et al., 1991).
