Item type:Publication, Hydrology, Water Resources Availability and Management in the Andes Under Climate Change and Human Impacts(Elsevier B.V., 2023-10-01)• This Special Issue investigates water availability and management across the Andes. • It includes novel approaches to couple climate and hydrology with human water needs. • The collection enables an integrated analysis to reduce future risk of water scarcity. • Andean water research requires improved data collection and plausible future scenarios. • Adaptive water management needs to foster science-policy dialogue processes. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Cascading downstream impacts of water cycle changes in mountain regions(Nature Portfolio, 2026-02-01)Mountains, often called the world’s ‘water towers’, are vital sources of freshwater that sustain ecosystems and societies far downstream. Climate change is altering their role, impacting the quantity, timing and quality of mountain water supply. While substantial research focuses on snow and glacier changes within mountains, a holistic understanding of how water cycle changes in mountains impact human water use and ecosystems downstream is still needed. Here we address how these changes cascade downstream, affect diverse social–ecological systems and pose challenges for adaptation. We also highlight major research gaps and outline research priorities for improving understanding of these coupled systems under a changing climate.1
