Impact of climate change on the hydrological regime of the Indus, Ganges and Brahmaputra river basins: a review of the literature
S Nepal, AB Shrestha - International Journal of Water Resources …, 2015 - Taylor & Francis
The Indus, Ganges and Brahmaputra river basins support 700 million people in Asia. The
water resources are used for irrigation, drinking, industry, navigation and hydropower. This
paper reviews the literature on the impact of climate change on the hydrological regime of
these river basins and suggests that the different basins are likely to be affected in different
ways. Climate change will have a marked affect on meltwater in the Indus Basin and may
result in increased flood risk in the Brahmaputra Basin. The overall impact on annual …
