Method synopsis

Application of uniform temperature increases to historical climate sequences to assess hydrological response to warming. Seasonal warming scenarios applied independently to test timing effects on water resources.

Synthesized from method descriptions across 1 paper using this protocol.

Procedure from a recent peer-reviewed implementation

Steps below were extracted from the most recent peer-reviewed implementation of this protocol in the corpus — Declining groundwater storage expected to amplify mountain streamflow reductions in a warmer world (2024), Nature Water. Implementations in other papers (listed below) may differ.

1. Apply warming scenarios
   Applied constant +4°C temperature increase continuously across all water years, with seasonal warming applied independently to autumn (September to November), winter (December to February), spring (March to May), and summer (June to August). Used historical climate sequencing for 1987-2022 as baseline.
   Quantities: +4°C temperature increase applied uniformly, 36-year simulation period (1987-2022)Duration: Continuous application across 36-year periodConditions: Based on end-of-century warming projections for continental subarctic region
   Equipment: SNOTEL temperature data, climate forcing data

Typical Equipment

• SNOTEL temperature data
• climate forcing data

Output Measurements

• temperature-adjusted climate forcing
