Abstract
Climate change refers to the average long-term changes over the whole Earth. Regarding the northern Europe, future climate projections show a general increase of temperature over all seasons. In cold conditions, this change will strongly affect the hydrological features over a year, such as precipitation, snow depth and runoff. Stormwater management is already essential to treat water in urban catchments. Because climate change is complicating urbanization impacts on hydrological features, current stormwater management systems will need to be adapted to altered conditions. Low Impact Development (LID) controls are seen as one option to adapt urban catchments to a changing hydrology. In order to evaluate local climate change impacts on the hydrology and then realize a climate change adaptation, an urban catchment in Espoo, in southern Finland, was studied.
The analysis was performed in three time windows: historical, mid- and far-future, according to the RCP8.5 emission scenario
