Impacts of climate change on hydrometeorological ecosystems

This book explains the nature of Hydro-meteorology of lake Kyoga and its ecosystem services. Climate change is predicted to increase the frequency of climatic extremes that can lead to loss of life and property. This study was mainly to analyze the water stress arising from the impacts of climate change on hydro-meteorological ecosystem services. The methodology of the study consists of an analysis of available meteorological and hydrological observations, analysis of Global Weather Data for ArcGIS/SWAT output data and finally the seasonal performance of precipitation and temperature using Climate Predictability Tool outputs. The Correlation Percentage change was used to estimate the rate of change of flow and water levels under a changing climate.
