Notes

This paper models water availability in the Satluj river basin under increasing temperature and decreasing precipitation scenarios. Over the year, water availability was not impacted as melt reduction in the lower part of the basin was counteracted by an increase in the upper part of the basin. This impacts seasonal as opposed to annual water availability.
