摘 要:Climate change can alter the status quo of the world as we know *** resources may also be influenced by these plausible *** common perception is that these changes may exacerbate the situation of water resources in arid and semi-arid regions,such as the Middle-East,which are experiencing mild to severe water stress due to limited water availability and growing water *** that spirit,this study aims to investigate the possible impacts of climate change on surface water in Maharlou Lake basin,***,this basin has already shown some symptoms of the water-related crisis,which highlights the importance of conducting climate change studies in this *** CansESM2 model was employed to predict the basin’s climatic response under various climate change *** hydrologic response of the basin was,then,simulated using *** results have demonstrated a 4%decrease in average annual rainfall,a 2%increase in average annual temperature,and,finally,a 24%decrease in average annual streamflow of the basin in the(2010-2099)time *** the results suggest that recent water-related challenges in the basin might have caused by climate change,further in-depth studies are required to reveal the exact reasons.
