The potential impacts of climate change on surface water have been an increasing concern among the community of hydrologists and water managers over the past two decades. As shown by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC 2007), the rise of global mean temperature observed in the past years will continue in the future and may result in strong regional modifications of temperature and precipitation characteristics. However the level of projected modifications seems to vary between regions and climate regimes. Therefore it can be expected that these climate changes will have various impacts on water bodies and on the water availability for ecosystems and human activities.
