dc.description.abstractIn Alberta and British Columbia, several detailed studies of climate trends, future climate predictions, and potential effects on hydrology have been conducted (e.g., Rodenhuis et al. 2007; Pike et al. 2008a, 2008b; Sauchyn and Kulshreshtha 2008; Walker and Sydneysmith 2008). These studies indicate that a changing climate will alter watershed processes, which in turn may affect many aspects of short- and long-term watershed management. From an operational perspective, watershed scale hydrologic models could be used to address a range of forest management uncertainties not limited to the assessment of future growing conditions, permanence of wetlands and small streams, and potential changes to flooding, low flow, and other disturbances (Pike et al. 2008b). However, using current hydrologic models to address such complex questions is expected to pose a number of challenges due to the inherent limitations of these models and data inadequacies that exist across British Columbia and Alberta.
