2
- Agricultural production, availability of water supply and many
other hydrological processes are likely to be impacted by
climate change (Gleick, 1987, Revelle and Waggoner,1983)
- The Philippines is one of the most disaster prone countries in the
world (World Bank and National Disaster Coordination Council (NDCC), 2004).
- 20 typhoons hit the country annually (WB).
Background
- Projections from the IPCC show significant global warming and
alterations in frequency and amount of precipitation from year
2000 to 2100 (Hengeveld, 2000; Le Treut et al., 2007; Mearns et al.,2007)
- Understanding changes in spatial and temporal variations of runoff
in a large river basin is important to develop measures for
mitigating potential negative impacts.

Conclusions and
Recommendations
- It is expected that the study will have significant
implications on water management and land use planning.
- The ARB is highly vulnerable to climate change and
land use change.
- Appropriate water resources policies, management and
infrastructures should be adopted to meet the future challenges.
29
- In the future, a more precise discharge data and model
validation are expected as advancements to improve the
hydrological prediction.

Editor's Notes

  1. Greetings – Compliments – Name –Position –Purpose Statement – Signpost – This paper contributes to the scientific understanding of changing hydrology in a large river basin due to climate change and offers baseline information to develop measures for mitigating potential negative impacts
  2. My presentation is divided into six (6) sections. Firstly, I’m going to talk about the background of my research followed with the objectives of the study. Then I will discuss about the methodology and data sources. Then I’m going to move on to the results and lastly I’ll focus on the conclusion.
  3. The Philippines by virtue of its geographic circumstances is highly prone to natural disasters, such as earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, tropical cyclones and floods, making it one of the most disaster prone countries in the world.On average, the Philippines faces about 20 typhoons annually, with five of them expected to cause major damages to life and property. Typhoons remain the largest killers in the Philippines, followed by earthquakes, volcanoes and floods.Climatic variability combined with human-induced emission of green-house gases result in an increase in global average air and ocean temperatures and alterations in frequency and amount of precipitation from year 2000 to 2100Availability of water supply, reservoir operations, crop production, erosion processes, runoff production and many other hydrological processes are likely to be impacted by climate changeIPCC-DDC 4th Assessment ReportScenario SRA1B. A future world of very rapid economic growth, global population that peaks in mid-century and declines thereafter, and rapid introduction of new and more efficient technologies, with the development balanced across energy sources.Scenario SRB1. A convergent world with the same global population as in the A1 storyline but with rapid changes in economic structures toward a service and information economy, with reductions in material intensity, and the introduction of clean and resource-efficient technologies. Community Climate System Model, version 3.0 (CCSM3) from National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR)
  4. HSPF is Built on the Stanford Watershed Model (Crawford and Linsley, 1966)HSPF is embedded in the US Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) water quality assessment tool, BASINS (Lahlou et al., 1998)The HSPF model mathematically represents the various hydrologic processes as flows and storages.The model consists of three primary modules, PERLND for pervious land, IMPLND for impervious land, and RCHRES for stream reaches, to simulate flow, water quality, and sediment transport in pervious land, impervious land, and streams.The PERLND simulates snow accumulation and melt, the water budget based on interactions among various storages, sediment produced by erosion, and water quality constituents in the dissolved as well as particulate phase.
  5. Prediction of probable impacts on water yield from various catchments caused by climate change and land-use change is extremely important for environmental and economic decisions and strategies.In this study, the first major objective is to build a hydrologic model for the ARB watershed and the second major objective is to investigate the streamflow responses at the basin outlet and at the major tributary rivers considering various climate change and land use change scenarios.- The specific objectives of the study are as follows:To delineate the watershed boundary of the Agusan River Basin (ARB). To define a number of sub-basins within the ARB watershed so the hydrologic response to climate change for each of these sub-basins will be used for planning and decision making. To generate streamflow network. To create the land cover and land use map of the ARB for hydrological simulation and to create future land use change scenario. To determine the variability of precipitation intensity within the ARB watershed and its surrounding regions as necessary input for meteorological data. To create the hydrological model of the ARB and define the hydrological streamflow characteristics of the major river (Agusan River) and its major tributary rivers. To create various climate change scenarios and land use change scenario as future conditions of the ARB. To investigate how land-use change or the extension of area affected by man-made intervention, and climate change will affect the hydrological nature in the basin. To provide tools and information to help policy makers, planners and water managers assess and manage the impacts of climate and land use change.
  6. Data needs for hydrological simulation is extensive. At a minimum, continuous rainfall records are required to drive the runoff model and additional records of evapotranspiration, temperature, and solar intensity are desirable. The essential geographic information required for simulation are the watershed, the sub-basins, the stream network, the land uses and the ground surface elevations. This information is supplied to the model through GIS.Observed temperature and precipitation data from Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) with grid increments at 0.25 degrees (27 km) are used as atmospheric forcing.Evapotranspiration data are computed based on daily observed maximum and minimum observed temperature from four (4) observed meteorological stations surrounding the ARBThe digital elevation model is used to delineate the watershed of the ARB and define the river networks.The model is calibrated using four observed sets of river discharge data.The calibrated model is then used to create five (5) projected scenarios based on land use change and probable increase of precipitation intensity and temperature change for future runoff predictions.Significant outputs from the model system for every scenario and for every major stream within the ARB river network are hydrograph, flow duration curves, seasonal flow frequency output, and highest and lowest flow values for a return period of 1, 25, 50, and 100 years. Graphical visualization and statistical analysis are then used to analyze the results.
  7. In this study, the DEM is extracted from the USGS HydroSHEDS (Hydrological data and maps based on SHuttle Elevation Derivatives at multiple Scales) which is derived from elevation data of the Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (SRTM) at 3 arc-second resolution.HydroSHEDS has been developed by the Conservation Science Program of World Wildlife Fund (WWF), in partnership with the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), the International Centre for Tropical Agriculture (CIAT), The Nature Conservancy (TNC), and the Center for Environmental Systems Research (CESR) of the University of Kassel, Germany. Land cover data in the format of GIS shapefile is obtained from the European Space Agency (ESA) GlobCover 2005 project.It is the first 300 m global land cover map for 2005 based on Environmental Satellite Medium Resolution Imaging Spectrometer Instrument (ENVISAT MERIS) launched in 2002 by the European Space Agency (ESA)The existing rain-gauge network over the country is not adequate enough for obtaining accurate spatial rainfall distribution. Therefore, it is necessary to make use of satellite data from TRMM to improve streamflow prediction.The TRMM was launched by the the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), in cooperation with the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA), in 1997 from the Tanegashima Space Center in Tanegashima, Japan.A series of daily observed temperature from all four meteorological stations, namely, a) Davao City station, b) Butuan City station, d) Malaybalay City station, e) Hinatuan Municipality station, which surrounds the ARB are taken from year 1999 to 2011.
  8. - The Agusan River Basin (ARB) is located in Eastern Mindanao and lies at 125°7&apos; E ~ 126°19&apos; E, 7°12&apos; N ~ 9°6&apos; N . It is the third largest river basin in the Philippines and has a total area of 11,979 sq. kilometers. The Agusan River is the third longest river in the Philippines and is the main river which drains the ARB from Compostela Valley area to Butuan City.The river consists of forest headwaters which originate from as high as 2,560 m mountainous environment surrounding the basin and has a total length of 283 km from the mouth of the river to the farthest north streamThe pouring point of the ARB watershed is selected eighteen (18) kilometers upstream from the mouth of the Agusan River so that the hydrological model to be generated will not be influenced by tidal fluctuations.This reduces the study area of the ARB to 11,346 sq. km consisting of sixty seven percent (67%) covered by the province of Agusan del Sur, twenty percent (20%) covered by the province of Compostela Valley.Included in the ARB are three component cities, twenty three municipalities and 426 barangays with a total population of 732,359 persons, 141,894 households and a population density of 64 persons per square kilometers.
  9. The DEM from HydroSHEDS is extracted and processed using ArcGIS® hydrology tools and ArcHydro tools and projected at World Geodetic System (WGS) 1984 datum Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM) geographic coordinate system Zone 51N. A spatial analysis was performed to process the digital elevation model and land use/land cover (LULC) in the study area.The watershed boundary is first delineated using the hydrology tool. The pouring point of the watershed is selected approximately twenty (20) kilometres upstream from the shoreline boundary so that tidal influence will not affect the model simulation.The stream network delineation is then processed using ArcHydro tools with 125 square kilometres considered as the river threshold which represents one percent (1%) of the maximum flow accumulation. The DEM shows that the highest elevation of the ARB reaches as high as 2,558 m (8,400 ft) above mean sea level. These mountainous areas can be found at the northern side, western side and the southern side of the watershed. For this research, the ARB is divided into sixty-four (64) sub-basins with 125 square kilometers as the minimum drainage area.The main criteria for selecting these sub-basins are the location of river gauging stations, the resolution of the precipitation data from TRMM, the location of the river gauging stations, and the level of information required at the sub-basin level.
  10. Precipitation modelling is included in this study to characterize the precipitation annual distribution within the ARB watershed and its neighbouring region in the entire Mindanao island.A total of 500 TRMM datasets at 0.25° interval for the entire Mindanao area are downloaded and the total annual precipitation for each dataset is computed.Using ArcGIS® spline interpolation tool, the isohyetal map in unit mm is plotted from year 1999 to 2010 to serve as sufficient duration to encompass a range of climatic variations such as El Niño and La Niña condition. The figure reveals that the eastern side of Mindanao, especially the ARB, experiences a relatively high amount of total annual rainfall compared to the western side of Mindanao.On the average, the ARB receives an annual precipitation of 3,400 mm (134 in) for the eleven year period from 1999 to 2010 with 3,200 mm (126 in) during La Niña condition in 2005 and 2010 and as low as 2,700 mm (106 in) in 2004 and with as high as 4,100 mm (160 in) during El Niño condition in year 1999.Precipitation data from the PAGASA stations near the ARB show that region normally experience high precipitation in the months of January and February. This phenomenon is triggered by trade winds blowing from the Pacific Ocean.
  11. 42. Evergreen Forest - Areas dominated by trees where 75 percent or more of the tree species `maintain their leaves all year. Canopy is never without green foliage.43. Mixed Forest - Areas dominated by trees where neither deciduous nor evergreen species represent more than 75 percent of the cover present. 51. Shrubland - Areas dominated by shrubs; shrub canopy accounts for 25-100 percent of the cover. Shrub cover is generally greater than 25 percent when tree cover is less than 25 percent. Shrub cover may be less than 25 percent in cases when the cover of other life forms (e.g. herbaceous or tree) is less than 25 percent and shrubs cover exceeds the cover of the other life forms.
  12. The hydrological analysis is performed using the EPA BASINS 4 WinHSPF Program.The resulting model is calibrated using four (4) observed sets of river gauging data.Statistical analysis is performed to determine the accuracy of the model.
  13. The overall simulation period is run from January 1999 to May 2011.Calibration however is limited from CY2005 to CY2010 depending on the availability of the data on the gauging stationGraphical as well as statistical measures are used to calibrate the modelManual calibration is applied to keep the observed and simulated mean flow values of the reaches as close as possible.Values of various parameters for HSPF calibration are selected based on the guidance provided in a BASINS technical note and on land use, agricultural activity, literature values, and slope and soil characteristicsAs observed data on high flow values has a high degree of uncertainty it is not practical to make use of automatic calibration since it involves comparing the total annual flow values of the observation and simulation results.Hydrographs, flow duration curves and scatter plot are used for graphical visualization of the results.While the model considers hourly data to run, perfectly calibration is entirely impossible since observed values are only measured once daily and the unavailability of sophisticated instrument to accurately/automatically measure streamflow data.
  14. This figure shows the comparison between the mean monthly discharges for the periods 1999-2011 in all simulated values and from the period 2005 to 2010 for observed values. Simulated flows are generally larger than observed flows during low-flow conditions, and are smaller than observed values for high-flow conditions.

The potential impact of climate change on the occurrence of extreme precipitation change, temperature change and land-use scenarios are investigated Major output include flow duration curves, flow frequency grid statistics and seasonal flow values. Weather scenarios based on IPPC Task Group on Data and Scenario Support for Impacts and Climate Analysis (TGICA) recommendations is used (IPCC-TGICA, 2007)Scenario 1 - Twenty percent (20%) increase in precipitation to simulate extreme wet conditionScenario 2 - Scenario 1 combined with two degree Celsius (2oC) change in temperature to simulate extreme wet condition and global warmingScenario 3 can be justified based on global circulation models - Global Precipitation Climatology Centre (GPCC) and ECHAM 5Land use change scenario adopted in the study consists mainly of the conversion of all forestland to agricultural land. This extreme and worst-case scenario is considered for the study as this condition was experienced by the neighboring region. Another important point to be emphasized in this study is the effectiveness of the forest in regulating streamflows.
  16. - All the five scenarios are considered for predicting future streamflow in the four gauging stations and 14 subbasins as rivers in these subbasins are the major source for agricultural production
  17. A 20% increase in precipitation will increase the average annual maximum, mean and minimum flow by 33%, 35% and 10%, respectively.Land use change has a much greater impact on the maximum and minimum flow values than on the mean flow.Conversion of all forestland to agricultural land will not significantly alter the streamflow mean value but it will increase the peak flow by as much as 77% of the maximum flow will decrease the minimum flow by as much as 21%.Reduction of precipitation by 50% will result to reduction of maximum, mean and minimum flow from 60% to 80%.Scenario 5 will result in an increase of maximum flow values by almost twice that in Scenario 1 and Scenario 2. Therefore, Scenario 5 is the critical scenario for the assessment of risks associated with the occurrence of floods in the basin. For the analysis of drought situation in the basin, Scenario 3 and Scenario 5 are the critical scenarios.
