Climate change impacts are both episodic, such as extreme weather events, and long-term and permanent, for example, due to changes in flow regimes and absolute water balances. To address uncertainties that exist about the direction, speed and intensity of climate change, water resources policy and management should include practices that ensure that water usage is ecologically sensitive, are consistent with sustainable development and are robust across a wide range of climate futures.
