A considerable range in results were identified, necessitating additional research aimed toward reducing uncertainty in projecting future freshwater availability, at local/regional to national scales
This special issue comprises a collection of nine papers focusing on various aspects related to past trends and variability and projected future changes in hydro-climatic processes that affect freshwater availability on local, regional, and/or larger scales
Summary
A considerable range in results were identified, necessitating additional research aimed toward reducing uncertainty in projecting future freshwater availability, at local/regional to national scales This special issue comprises a collection of nine papers (summarized below) focusing on various aspects related to past trends and variability and projected future changes in hydro-climatic processes that affect freshwater availability on local, regional, and/or larger scales, (with a particular focus on the cold-region country of Canada). These include largescale reviews of current tools used for environmental flow determination, and issues related to the better understanding of continental-scale freshwater availability across Canada, both in the context of a changing climate. Intercomparison Project Phase 6 (CMIP6) across the diverse ecoregions of Alberta, Canada
