Hydrological projections of fluvial floods in the Uruguay and Paraná basins under different climate change scenarios

Hydrological modelling with climate scenario data are used to develop projections of changes in frequency and duration of flood events in the margins of the lower sections of the Paraná and Uruguay Rivers in La Plata Basin for the twenty-first century. Discharges were simulated with the Variable Inf...
