Calculating the Impact of Climate Change (Series)
Published on by Ronald Manley, Partner at Water Resource Associates llp in Academic
It is widely accepted that the climate is changing, and will change more in the future, as a result of human activity. In recent years, I have carried out many studies where I have quantified the impact of changes to climate. These have been in Europe, Asia, the Pacific and Africa.

The studies are described among the discussion posts on my web site.
The countries and regions included are: Bangladesh, Cambodia, Mekong Basin, Great Lakes of Africa, Tagus (Tajo, Tejo) River Basin, Vanuatu, Samoa, Kyrgyzstan, Zambia and Turkey.
The types of potential impact include: flooding, droughts, rural communities, hydropower, irrigation, roads, water resources.
The posts give a summary of the methodology and also sources of observed data and of climate projections.
I have attached the first of the posts and the rest can be downloaded from:
