许多人认为气候变化是一场等待中的灾难，社会显然依赖各种系统来保护自己免受变幻莫测的天气的影响（Ausubel，1991年），在某些情况下利用这些系统，这一观点得到了加强。世界气象组织秘书长Obasi教授在1988年灾害水文学会议开幕式上说：”随着人口的增长，自然灾害造成的损失似乎每年都在增加，我们现在必须考虑气候变化带来的复杂问题”（Starosolsky和Melder，1989年）。
Many regard climate change as a disaster-in-waiting, a view reinforced by society's evident dependence on systems to protect itself against the vagaries of weather (Ausubel, 1991), and in some instances to exploit them. Professor Obasi, Secretary General of the World Meteorological Organization, opened the 1988 conference on the Hydrology ofDisasters with the words," lossesfrom natural disasters appearto be increasing every year with the growth of population, and we must now consider the complications introduced by climate change"(Starosolsky and Melder, 1989).
