A multimodel assessment of climate change impacts on extreme hydrological drought under CMIP6-SSP scenarios in the Hanjiang River Basin, China
Key Points
Extreme hydrological drought is projected to increase significantly within the Hanjiang River Basin.
Under CMIP6-SSP scenarios, models indicate a rise of 20-30% in drought frequency and severity by 2050.
This multimodel assessment evaluates various climate projections to understand potential impacts on water resources.
These insights call for immediate action to develop adaptive strategies for managing water resources.
