The WATCAP is intended to help to bridge the gap between the climate change predictions for the SRB and the decision makers in current and planned water management investment projects that will be affected by changing climate trends. The purpose of the report is to: (i) assist stakeholders and decision makers in assessing and planning for the risks generated by climate change impacts on water resources; (ii) provide a basis for future plans and studies of adaptation to climate change impacts in the SRB; and (iii) stimulate cooperation and debate across the basin toward additional and more detailed studies on climate change impacts at the regional and basin scale. The SRB is projected to experience small increases in water use by the public water supply, industry, energy, and agricultural and irrigation sectors. However, it is widely expected that new hydropower plants (HPPs) will be constructed in the near future, making energy (primarily through hydropower) the most important water use in the SRB.en-USCC BY 3.0 IGOIMPACTS OF CLIMATE CHANGEECONOMIC MODELECONOMIC GROWTHTEMPERATURESORGHUMBEANSINCOMEAGRICULTURAL SECTORSCROP MODELINGMODELSCLIMATE SCENARIOSPRICESUGAR BEETAIRECONOMIC ANALYSISPLANSMAIZECROP YIELDSUNFLOWERCROP PRODUCTIONCEREALSECONOMIC IMPACT OF CLIMATE CHANGESCENARIOSNEGATIVE IMPACTPOPULATION GROWTHCROP YIELD CHANGESGROUNDNUTSEEDSFUTURE CLIMATE SCENARIOSCLIMATE ADAPTATIONCLIMATE VARIABLESCROP MODELLINGWHEAT PRICESPADDYFRUITSVEGETABLESAGRICULTURAL PRICESCLIMATE MODELALFALFAFORESTRYCLIMATE SCENARIOSUGAR CANEBARLEYFINANCIAL CONTRIBUTIONGRAINSCLIMATE MODELSPRECIPITATIONBEET SUGARTOBACCOCROPSSOYBEANECONOMIC EVALUATION OF CLIMATE CHANGEIMPACT OF CLIMATEPRODUCEECONOMIC ANALYSIS OF CLIMATE CHANGECROP YIELDSCONSUMPTIONECONOMIC IMPACTCROPCLIMATE CHANGEPOLICIESCLIMATE CHANGE IMPACTGRAPESIMPACT OF CLIMATE CHANGECROP PRICESVALUEELECTRICITYCLIMATE CHANGE IMPACTSCLIMATEMILLETFIBERSAGRICULTURAL SECTORAGRICULTUREFAOCLIMATE IMPACTMARKETCROP MODELSDAMCOSTS OF CLIMATE CHANGECOTTONAGRICULTURAL PRODUCTSPEPPERSUGARCANELESSWHEATCLIMATE PROJECTIONSRICEYIELDSGCMCROP MODELPULSESHYDROLOGICAL DATAPRICESWINTER WHEATAGRICULTURAL GOODSBEET SUGARSUGARReportWorld Bank10.1596/22950
