Hydroclimate Extremes and Risk Assessment under Climate Change
In the context of intensifying global climate change and increasing frequency of hydroclimatic extremes, water resources, ecosystems, and communities face unprecedented challenges. Understanding, predicting, and managing hydroclimate extremes such as droughts and floods are crucial for sustainable development, risk reduction, and resilience planning. This topic issue, focusing on "Hydroclimate Extremes and Risk Assessment under Climate Change", aims to bring together expertise from hydrology, climate science, environmental modeling, and risk management, promoting theoretical advances and practical innovations in extreme event attribution, forecasting, risk assessment, and adaptive strategies. The topic issue seeks to contribute high-quality scientific insights and practical solutions to address hydroclimate risks under a changing climate. The topic issue covers topics including, but not limited to: Extreme hydroclimate event attribution and modeling Drought and flood monitoring, forecasting, and early warning Projecting hydrological extremes under climate change scenarios Risk assessment and resilience strategies for water resources and communities Uncertainty quantification in hydroclimate modeling Climate change impacts on hydrological systems Innovative data-driven and statistical methods for hydroclimate research Integrated hydroclimate management and adaptation strategies Academic Editors Dr. Hongxing Zheng ( hongxing.zheng@csiro.au ) CSIRO Environment, Canberra, Australia Prof. Sha Zhou ( shazhou21@bnu.edu.cn ) Beijing Normal University, Beijing, China Submission Guideline To submit your manuscript, please visit the Hydrology and Water Resources journal website at https://www.sciltp.com/journals/hwr and follow the manuscript submission procedures.
