«Unlike common random series like those observed, for example, in games of chance, hydrologic (and other geophysical) time series have some structure, that is, consecutive values of hydrologic time series depend on each other.

Every element of the hydrologic cycle, to some degree, is temperature dependent: when it snows versus when it rains; when it melts, how much evaporates; how much water the plants use; the length of the growing seasons.

«In large part, the answer is that the basin has become hotter, which modifies several facets of the hydrologic cycle that lie between precipitation and runoff, including evapotranspiration and sublimation rates, the timing of snowmelt and soil moisture characteristics,» according to the paper.

Markus leads the effort at PCIC to quantify the direct and indirect effects of climate change and variability upon the various components of hydrologic cycle at the local and regional scale.

During this time, Markus developed a clear and pragmatic appreciation of the hydrologic effects of climate change and variability.

The aim of the Hydrologic Impacts (HI) theme at PCIC is to quantify the effect of climate change and climate variability on regional hydrology in order to provide analysis and information relevant to water resources management.

The result of putting more carbon into the atmosphere than can be taken out of it is a warmer climate, a melting Arctic, higher sea levels, improvements in the photosynthetic efficiency of many plants, an intensification of the hydrologic cycle of evaporation and precipitation, and new ocean chemistry.

Many impacts settings are somewhat tuned to a certain resolution, such as the nested size categorizations of hydrologic basins down to watershed size, commonly used in hydrologic modeling.

Application of the VIC model and the generation of hydrologic projections for the Peace, Fraser, upper Columbia and Campbell River watersheds are described in Shrestha et al. (2012) and Schnorbus et al. (2011, 2014).

Energetic constraints and response of hydrologic cycle to climate change.

Also, just because the average pole - to - equator temperature gradient is decreasing doesn't mean that the seasonal variation won't still be in place, and then there's the whole issue of the hydrologic cycle intensification — a moister atmosphere carries more latent heat and thus may generate more intense mid-latitude storms as well.

Note also that there appears — already started — to be a likely increase in drought frequency with atmospheric warming and associated acceleration of the hydrologic cycle, assuming continued greenhouse gas emissions.

This aspect of the hydrologic cycle was recognized by the 2005 National Research Council report (see pages 93 - 98 in http://www.nap.edu/openbook/0309095069/html/) as a non-radiative climate forcing.

To my mind the more important result of this review paper was in the synthesis of information from many discipines that point towards an ongoing intensification of the hydrologic cycle — not that I did not find evidence for more frequent or intense storms.
