2003Uncertainty and Climate Change Impact on the Flood Regime of Small UK Catchment.
This paper develops a methodology for analyzing uncertainty in climate change impact studies and then applies it to 5 catchments in Great Britain. The authors also use a flow series model to simulate past and future hydrological scenarios and generate predictions for future flood regimes. (Abstract only).
