Résumé
Water risk management has been adversely affected by climate variations, including recent climate change. Climate variations have highly impacted the hydrological cycles in the atmosphere and biosphere, and their impact can be defined with the teleconnection between climate signals and hydrological variables. Water managers should practice future risk management to mitigate risks, including the impact of teleconnection, and stochastically simulated scenarios can be employed as an effective tool to take advantage of water management preparation. A stochastic simulation model for hydrological variables teleconnected with climate signals is very useful for water managers. Therefore, the objective of the current study was to develop a novel stochastic simulation model for the simulation of synthetic series teleconnected with climate signals. By jointly decomposing the hydrological variables and a climate signal with bivariate empirical mode decomposition (BEMD), the bivariate nonstationary oscillation resampling (B-NSOR) model was applied to the significant components. The remaining components were simulated with the newly developed method of climate signal-led K-nearest neighbor-based local linear regression (CKLR). This entire approach is referred to as the climate signal-led hydrologic stochastic simulation (CSHS) model. The key statistics were estimated from the 200 simulated series and compared with the observed data, and the results showed that the CSHS model could reproduce the key statistics including extremes while the SML model showed slight underestimation in the skewness and maximum values. Additionally, the observed long-term variability of hydrological variables was reproduced well with the CSHS model by analyzing drought statistics. Moreover, the Hurst coefficient with slightly higher than 0.8 was fairly preserved by the CSHS model while the SML model is underestimated as 0.75. The overall results demonstrate that the proposed CSHS model outperformed the existing shifting mean level (SML) model, which has been used to simulate hydroclimatological variables. Future projections until 2100 were obtained with the CSHS model. The overall results indicated that the proposed CSHS model could represent a reasonable alternative to teleconnect climate signals with hydrological variables.
