Trend and inter-annual variability in regional climate models – Validation and hydrological implications in southeast Australia Open

Jin Teng, James Bennett, Stephen P. Charles, Francis H. S. Chiew, Fei Ji , et al. · 2024

We assessed the ability of Regional Climate Models (RCMs) to reproduce observed means, inter-annual variance and trends for rainfall indices that were important for runoff generation over southeast Australia. To establish the benefit of th…

Projections of future streamflow for Australia informed by CMIP6 and previous generations of global climate models Open

Hongxing Zheng, Francis H. S. Chiew, David Post, David Robertson, Stephen P. Charles , et al. · 2024

Projections of streamflow under future climate are essential for developing adaptation strategies in the water and related sectors. This paper presents nationwide streamflow projections for Australia informed by climate change signals in C…

Different Hydroclimate Modelling Approaches Can Lead to a Large Range of Streamflow Projections under Climate Change: Implications for Water Resources Management Open

Francis H. S. Chiew, Hongxing Zheng, Nicholas J. Potter, Stephen P. Charles, Marcus Thatcher , et al. · 2022

The paper compares future streamflow projections for 133 catchments in the Murray–Darling Basin simulated by a hydrological model with future rainfall inputs generated from different methods informed by climate change signals from differen…

Bias in dynamically downscaled rainfall characteristics for hydroclimatic projections Open

Nicholas J. Potter, Francis H. S. Chiew, Stephen P. Charles, Guobin Fu, Hongxing Zheng , et al. · 2020

Dynamical downscaling of future projections of global climate model outputs can provide useful information about plausible and possible changes to water resource availability, for which there is increasing demand in regional water resource…

Impact of downscaled rainfall biases on projected runoff changes Open

Stephen P. Charles, Francis H. S. Chiew, Nicholas J. Potter, Hongxing Zheng, Guobin Fu , et al. · 2020

Realistic projections of changes to daily rainfall frequency and magnitude, at catchment scales, are required to assess the potential impacts of climate change on regional water supply. We show that quantile–quantile mapping (QQM) bias-cor…

Runoff and Groundwater Responses to Climate Change in South West Australia Open

Don McFarlane, Richard J George, John Ruprecht, Stephen P. Charles, Geoff Hodgson · 2020

A warming and drying climate in the South West of Australia since about 1975, and especially from 2000, has reduced flooding and lessened salinisation risks, but also has reduced fresh water supplies. As well as continuous trends, there ha…
