An open-access article published in WIREs Climate Change, https://doi.org/10.1002/wcc.757, by Wasti et al. (2022) entitled “Climate change and the hydropower sector: A global review” analyze the effect of climate change on global hydropower generation, based on observed trends and near-future projections. The effects are indicated by two levels of symbols: high and low. Generally, if a climate change effect is discussed in more than 50% of the review papers for the region, a “high” symbol (filled in) is adopted. Also shown are the major rivers (blue lines), mountain ranges (cyan hue), and the location of existing and planned hydropower plants (purple dots) (Global Energy Observatory, 2018; Zarfl et al., 2015).
