This IAHR Water Monograph aims at providing a guidance to professionals, researchers and policy makers for assessing observed and projected impact of climate variability and change on the hydro-systems and to adapt the practice of engineering design of hydraulic infrastructures and water resources management to such changes. It will present an overview of methods for the analysis of non-stationary time series and of the estimate of the hydrological and hydraulic design variables as precipitation, floods, droughts, sea level and storm surges by relaxing the hypothesis of stationarity of the climate.

Opinions from experts
This IAHR Water Monograph brings together a wealth of knowledge and guidance for practitioners, planners and decision-makers. It offers a comprehensive view of how climate change affects all aspects of water engineering — from flood control and sanitation to hydropower, urban drainage and coastal defence. The chapters address crucial issues such as non-stationarity in hydrological design, hydroclimatic variability, nature-based solutions, and the limitations of current modelling approaches. It clearly shows the growing need for robust adaptation strategies grounded in sound risk assessment and longterm monitoring.”
