Summary It is important to assess risks due to global warming from a practical point of view and develop concrete water management measures including those related to floods and droughts. These risks are evaluated using the results of the regional climate change projection over the next 100 years from the CRCM20 regional climate model and GCM20 high resolution general circulation model developed by the Japan Meteorological Agency and the Meteorological Research Institute.
