TY - JOUR AU - Muleta, Teressa Negassa PY - 2021 DA - 2021/03/26 TI - Climate change scenario analysis for Baro-Akobo river basin, Southwestern Ethiopia JO - Environmental Systems Research SP - 24 VL - 10 IS - 1 AB - Several water resources projects are under planning and implementation in the Baro-Akobo basin. Currently, the planning and management of these projects is relied on historical data. So far, hardly any study has addressed water resources management and adaptation measures in the face of changing water balances due to climate change in the basin. The main bottleneck to this has been lack of future climate change scenario base data over the basin. The current study is aimed at developing future climate change scenario for the basin. To this end, Regional Climate Model (RCM) downscaled data for A1B emission scenario was employed and bias corrected at basin level using observed data. Future climate change scenario was developed using the bias corrected RCM output data with the basic objective of producing baseline data for sustainable water resources development and management in the basin.
