Communicating Modeled Information for Adaptation Decision Making

The document analyzes the HighNoon project, which began in 2009 to assess the impacts of Himalayan glacier retreat and monsoon changes on water resources in Northern India. It focuses on how modeled climate and hydrological data, combined with stakeholder perspectives, can be used to recommend response strategies for hydrological extreme events and guide government investments in information systems.

• The HighNoon project aimed to recommend efficient response strategies for adaptation to hydrological extreme events by integrating regional climate and hydrological model scenarios with stakeholder perspectives.
• The project specifically assessed how the retreat of Himalayan glaciers and changes in the Indian summer monsoon would affect the distribution of water resources in Northern India.
