| 摘要： | In the coming decades, climate change is expected to have profound implications for societies around the world. Among the most signif-icant is the extent to which climate change will affect water and its distribution across the planet. Shifting precipitation patterns, for example, are expected to increase drought and threaten water supplies in some areas while boosting rainfall in other areas, potentially exacerbating Hooding. Confoundingly, some locations likely will boomerang between the two extremes, enduring extended drought as well as periods of greater Hooding. Meanwhile, sea levels are anticipated to rise as glaciers melt and warming oceans expand. And higher sea levels mean greater storm surges, only increasing the violence of dangerous storms. |
