Using the UKCP09 probabilistic scenarios to model the amplified impact of climate change on drainage basin sediment yield

Precipitation intensities and the frequency of extreme events are projected to increase under climate change. These rainfall changes will lead to increases in the magnitude and frequency of flood events that will, in turn, affect patterns of erosion and deposition within river basins. These geomorph...
