Navigating Climate Change Challenges:

In an era where climate change is increasingly shaping our future, decision-makers are confronted with the imperative task of integrating climate considerations into their pre-feasibility studies. At Bioresources Africa, we recognize the significance of anticipating future weather patterns and their impact over the coming decades.

​

Our approach revolves around harnessing cutting-edge methodologies to access outputs from global climate models. We employ advanced techniques to downscale and bias-correct this data, ensuring its relevance to local conditions. By forecasting the effects of climate change on ground-level water users, including farmers, miners, and urban councils, we empower our clients to make informed decisions.

​

We employ two distinct methodologies to conduct climate change studies. The first involves leveraging climate projections from multiple models, which are then downscaled and bias-corrected before being integrated into our hydrological models. This approach yields six potential runoff scenarios, offering comprehensive insights into future water dynamics. Alternatively, our second methodology entails generating stochastic time series of weather data, encompassing predictions from several climate models. From these, we derive statistical expectations of future climate conditions.

​

Given the ever-evolving nature of climate science data, we serve as intermediaries between the climate scientists and the end-user, adeptly navigating the complexities of the raw data to extract meaningful insights. Our expertise allows us to distill vast and intricate datasets into actionable predictions, which are seamlessly integrated into our hydrological models. Through this process, we provide our clients with a clear understanding of what streamflow might look like in the years to come, empowering them to adapt and thrive in a changing climate landscape.
