2. ADB TA 7599-TAJ Climate Resiliency for Natural Resources Investments River Basin Approach to Climate Resiliency Objective Identify sustainable adaptations that will protect water dependent assets (communities, infrastructure, ecosystems) against unfavourable hydrological changes caused by climate change

4. ADB TA 7599-TAJ Climate Resiliency for Natural Resources Investments Potential Climate Changes and Hazards Affecting River Basins Climate ChangeClimate Hazard Higher temperature Increased melting of snow and glaciers ~ Glacier retreat ~ Glacier surging; glacial lake bursts ~ Increased summer flows initially ~ Reduced summer flows ultimately Longer growing season ~ Increased water demand for irrigation Increased demand for hydropower for air conditioning More rain Flash floods Reduced water demand for irrigation Less snow Less snowmelt Glacier retreat More evapo-transpiration Increased water demand for irrigation
