15 Scenario 1 for Maybar + 24% precipitation Same av. annual precipitation as Anjeni + ~50% more discharge + ~20% higher drainage ratio infiltration-excess processes 15

16 Scenario 2 for Andit Tid + 42% (6.8 C) Min Temperature Same av. annual temperature as Anjeni + ~ 60% potential Evapotranspiration from 1,099 to 1,608 mm - ~10% discharge - ~ 10% drainage ratio 16

18 Increasing temperature Decreasing rainfall-runoff ratio Increasing precipitation Increasing rainfall-runoff ratio Differences of rainfall-runoff ratio in small scale catchments are largely caused by temperature and precipitation Changes in temperature or precipitation (e.g. climate change) have far-reaching consequences for blue and green water distribution 18
