          Abstract

          Resumo Neste trabalho é apresentada a avaliação dos impactos das mudanças climáticas sobre a vazão de contribuição à lagoa Magueira, localizada no sul do Brasil, com base em projeções de precipitação de vinte Modelos Climáticos Globais (MCGs) que alimentam o modelo hidrológico IPH II. As projeções foram baseadas em dois cenários de mudanças climáticas definidos pelo IPCC que estabelecem as forçantes para que os MCGs estimem o clima futuro: A2, caracterizado pelas altas emissões e B2, caracterizado pelas baixas emissões. O MAGICC/ScenGen foi utilizado para obter as projeções de anomalias mensais de precipitação nos cenários A2/B2 em períodos futuros centrados em 2030 e 2070. As séries temporais de precipitação projetadas foram estimadas usando o método delta change. Os resultados em termos de vazão média anual mostraram que o valor médio das anomalias no horizonte próximo é parecido em ambos cenários, sendo igual a +2,86%(A2) e +2,48%(B2). Este valor aumentou no horizonte longo, com valor médio das anomalias de +16,94%(A2) e +11,83%(B2). A dispersão entre os resultados dos MCGs mostrou anomalias que podem atingir [+10%,−7%] no horizonte próximo e [+30%,−20%] no horizonte longo. Assim, embora existisse uma maior concordância nos MCGs ao aumento das vazões, é importante ressaltar a dispersão dos resultados.

          Abstract This manuscript presents the assessment of climate change impacts on the streamflow at the Mangueira lake watershed, located in Southern Brazil, based on precipitation predictions of twenty Atmospheric/Ocean General Circulation Models (AOGCMs) that feed a hydrologic model named IPH II. The projections were based on two emission scenarios of the IPCC that set the forcing conditions for the AOGCMs to estimate future climate: A2, characterized by higher emissions and B2, characterized by lower emissions. The MAGICC/ScenGen was used to obtain the projected monthly anomalies of precipitation for the scenarios A2/B2 at two future time intervals centered at 2030 and 2070. Time series of projected precipitation were estimated using the delta change approach. The results in terms of average annual flow shows that mean value of the anomalies on the near horizon resulted very similar, equal to +2.86%(A2) and +2.48%(B2). This statistic increased on the long horizon, with a mean value of the anomalies of +16.94%(A2) and +11.83%(B2). The dispersion among results of the AOGCMs showed anomalies that may reach [+10%,−7%] in the near future and [+30%,−20%], in the long horizon. Thus, although there was higher agreement between AOGCMs in increasing flows, it is important to highlight the dispersion of results.
