Abstract
MENA RENTERIA, Darwin et al. Water supply failure probability under influence of climate change - Balsillas river basin case study. Rev.fac.ing.univ. Antioquia [online]. 2022, n.103, pp.9-19. Epub Feb 16, 2022. ISSN 0120-6230. https://doi.org/10.17533/udea.redin.20201008.
This project assesses the risk of water supply failure for the agricultural sector under climate change conditions by implementing hydrological models that support decision-making for satisfying consumptive demands in times of scarcity. This project was developed using hydrological modeling tools such as the HydroBID software and the SIMGES and SIMRISK water resource management models of AQUATOOL DSS. The flow series for a future scenario were obtained for different climate change scenarios from a Global Climate Model (GCM) and the Coordinated Regional Experiment on Climate Reduction (CORDEX) by downscaling the results from the global scale to basin-scale using a statistical method based on chaos theory. These projections show that under conditions of climate change, the agricultural sector of the Balsillas basin will not suffer significant impacts since they will be able to satisfy most demand points.
