EFFECTS OF CLIMATE AND LAND-USE CHANGE ON STORM RUNOFF GENERATION : PRESENT KNOWLEDGE AND MODELLING CAPACIBILITIES

Overview of the possible effects of climatic and land-use change on storm runoff generation. Discussion on the models dealing with the hydrological response to climate and land- use variations, including both the downscaling of climate information from global circulation models and the way flood forecasting models represent land-use conditions. Two modelling studies of meso-scale catchments are presented.
