Title Natural and Managed Watersheds Show Similar Responses to Recent Climate Change
Creator Ficklin, Darren L. Abatzoglou, John T. Robeson, Scott M. Null, Sarah E. Knouft, Jason H.
Description Changes in climate are driving an intensification of the hydrologic cycle and leading to alterations of natural streamflow regimes. Human disturbances such as dams, land-cover change, and water diversions are thought to obscure climate signals in hydrologic systems. As a result, most studies of changing hydroclimatic conditions are limited to areas with natural streamflow. Here, we compare trends in observed streamflow from natural and human-modified watersheds in the United States and Canada...
