Evaluating the impact of fluvial geomorphology on river ice cover formation based on a global sensitivity analysis of a river ice model (2013)
Journal Article
Lindenschmidt, K. E., & Chun, K. P. (2013). Evaluating the impact of fluvial geomorphology on river ice cover formation based on a global sensitivity analysis of a river ice model. Canadian Journal of Civil Engineering, 40(7), 623-632. https://doi.org/10.1139/cjce-2012-0274

In 2011, Manitoba was stricken by wide-scale flooding causing high flows along the Dauphin River. The unprecedented high discharges at freeze-up created the potential for excessive ice cover thickening and backwater staging exacerbating the flood ris...

Prediction of the impact of climate change on drought: an evaluation of six UK catchments using two stochastic approaches (2013)
Journal Article
Chun, K. P., Wheater, H., & Onof, C. (2013). Prediction of the impact of climate change on drought: an evaluation of six UK catchments using two stochastic approaches. Hydrological Processes, 27(11), 1600-1614. https://doi.org/10.1002/hyp.9259

Under future climate scenarios, possible changes of drought patterns pose new challenges for water resources management. For quantifying and qualifying drought characteristics in the UK, the drought severity indices of six catchments are investigated...

A stochastic reconstruction framework for analysis of water resource system vulnerability to climate-induced changes in river flow regime (2013)
Journal Article
Nazemi, A., Wheater, H. S., Chun, K. P., & Elshorbagy, A. (2013). A stochastic reconstruction framework for analysis of water resource system vulnerability to climate-induced changes in river flow regime. Water Resources Research, 49(1), 291-305. https://doi.org/10.1029/2012WR012755

Assessments of potential impacts of climate change on water resources systems are generally based on the use of downscaled climate scenarios to force hydrological and water resource systems models and hence quantify potential changes in system respon...

Comparison of drought projections using two UK weather generators (2013)
Journal Article
Chun, K. P., Wheater, H. S., & Onof, C. (2013). Comparison of drought projections using two UK weather generators. Hydrological Sciences Journal, 58(2), 295-309. https://doi.org/10.1080/02626667.2012.754544

Possible changes in drought under future climate scenarios may pose unprecedented challenges for water resources, as well as other environmental and societal issues, and need assessment to quantify their associated risk. Two weather generators, based... Read More about Comparison of drought projections using two UK weather generators.
