Cover Story: The Assiniboine River Basin (ARB) is subject to the exceptionally variable precipitation regime of the Canadian Prairies, ranging between record droughts and unprecedented flooding. Climate change could intensify hydrological extremes, changing not just the magnitude but also the timing of flood and drought events. Changes in the severity of extreme hydrological events and seasonal distribution of runoff will have major impacts on terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems, and on the availability of municipal and industrial water supplies in the ARB. These large uncertainties highlight the value of adaptive management and a risk-based approach to climate resilience to reduce future risks while considering the range of uncertainties.
