Climate change is altering global runoff patterns, leading to more extreme flooding and drought events.
Climate change is altering infiltration rates due to changes in precipitation patterns and soil conditions.
Climate change is increasing evaporation rates due to rising temperatures.
Climate change is increasing evapotranspiration rates due to rising temperatures and intensified water cycle.
Climate change is altering global precipitation patterns, leading to more extreme weather events.
How It Affects
Water Cycle
Precitipation
Intensifying the hydrological cycle, leading to increased precipitation intensity and shifts in patterns.
Infiltration
Climate change is altering infiltration rates due to changes in precipitation patterns and soil conditions.
Runoff
Altering water runoff patterns, leading to more frequent and intense floods and decreased runoff due to droughts.
Evaporation
Changes in precipitation, water availability, and atmospheric moisture which intensifying evaporation rates.
Evapotranspiration
Climate change rises temperatures, which increase the evaporation of water from land and water bodies.
Sea Water Level
As the Earth’s temperature increases, glaciers and ice sheets melt, adding more water to the oceans.
