The general circulation model scenarios used produce results suggesting that China will benefit from increased runoff in regions of water scarcity and high demand. However, the increased evaporation and flow variability will take its toll in some regions, increasing the frequency of floods and droughts and thereby the cost of and need for storage in those regions.
