Science, assessments and data availability related to anticipated climate and hydrologic changes in inland freshwaters of the Prairies region (Lake Winnipeg drainage basin) / by D. Sauchyn and J. St.... : Fs97-4/3107E-PDF

"This report is a review of scientific studies of expected changes to the climate and water cycle of the Canadian Prairies under climate change. Because climate change has been underway for decades, this work reviews both historical trends and future projections. A large section of this review examines studies of surface water levels and geographically of the Saskatchewan River Basin (SRB) because of the large number of available scientific studies. The SRB is the watershed that is most vulnerable to drought given the semiarid climate, large population and extent of agricultural land. The review also includes the Assiniboine, Red, and Winnipeg River Basins, although relatively fewer studies were available. This report is based on the review of almost 100 studies. The majority of these are analyses of historical trends in climate and water variables"--Abstract.
