The impact of climate extremes, such as heat waves and extreme rainfall, can cause harvest failures, flooding, and droughts that ultimately threaten global food security, harming the region�s economy. Fluctuations in streamflow indicate the sensitivity of streamflow responding to extreme precipitati...
