Title	Climate Variability, Climate Change, and Western Water : report to the Western Water Policy Review Advisory Commission
Description	Climate Variability, Climate Change, and Western Water by Kathleen A. Miller is a 54 page report to the Western Water Policy Review Advisory Commission submitted September 1997. The first section of this report describes the present distribution of water resource availability across the West and the variability of streamflows on multiple time scales. This description of contemporary climate examines some of the evidence for links between the ENSO (El Nino) phenomenon and anomalously wet or dry periods in some parts of the West. The next section describes the current state of scientific understanding regarding the effects of fossil fuel burning and other human activities on the global climate system and on broad-scale regional patterns of climate change. The report then focuses on efforts to develop scenarios of the possible impacts of climate change on western streamflows and lays out the results for a sample of such studies. The relevance of climate variability and climate change for western water policy is then addressed. Keywords: climate/ climate change/ ENSO/ fossil fuel/ global climate/ streamflows/ water policy
