Sensitivity of river ecosystems to global change: Assessing land management strategies to mitigate the combined impacts of climate warming and land use changes in cold temperate regions

气候导致的气候变暖将如何与未来的土地利用变化相互作用在很大程度上尚不清楚。大多数试图预测气候变化对水文和水质的影响的研究都认为分水岭的配置不会改变。然而，土地利用很可能在未来几十年中继续演变，并将对未来的流域水文和水质产生重要影响。未来的气候变化，再加上土地利用的改变和土地管理做法，将在水生生态系统中产生复杂的相互作用和反馈。

How climate-induced warming will interact with future land use changes remains largely unknown. Most studies that have attempted to forecast the effect of climatic changes on hydrology and water quality consider that watershed configuration would not be altered. However, it is likely that land use will continue to evolve over the next decades and that it will have an important influence on future watershed hydrology and water quality. Future climatic changes, combined with land use modifications and land management practices will create complex interactions and feedbacks in aquatic ecosystems.
