Annual cycle of first order sensitivity indices (Si ${S}_{i}$) at the Animas River basin. Sensitivity indices are calculated for total runoff (a), surface runoff (b), and subsurface runoff (c) flux. Fluxes variance (V $V$) due to varying all parameters is shown in dotted red line. The annual cycle of sensitivity indices and variances is calculated as simple averages per day of the year for the 1935–2010 water‐years. The thickness of the color bands represents a parameter's contribution to the total variance V $V$ (i.e., sensitivity) at each day of the year.

Crucial to the assessment of future water security is how the land model component of Earth System Models partition precipitation into evapotranspiration and runoff, and the sensitivity of this partitioning to climate. This sensitivity is not explicitly constrained in land models nor the model parameters important for this sensitivity identified. H...

In this chapter, the water security status in East and Southeast Asia is investigated by examining some important dimensions associated with water issues. First, the water availability and water use pattern are reviewed and the socioeconomic implication of water resources is analysed in the region. Next, the concept of “water security” and several...
