## Abstract The hydrological response to climate change in the Tarim River Basin was investigated by analysing the hydrological, temperature and precipitation data of the past 50 years. The long‐term trend of the hydrological time‐series, including air temperature, precipitation, and streamflow, wa

✦ Synopsis
Using runoff and climatic observations from 37 small watersheds in Hungary a regional climate-runoff relationship has been established. This non-linear relationship is a modification of Budiko's similar equation and can be used to estimate the effect of climate changes on long-term average runoff. The degree of change in runoff depends not only on changes in precipitation and temperature, but also on the present climate characteristics. The regional relationship is verified only within a relatively narrow range of precipitation and temperature and this fact limits its use in climate impact assessment. Model calculations show that a relatively slight shift in climate, an increase in annual temperature by 05"C, and a decrease of annual rainfall by 008 mmd-' may lead to a decrease of runoff by 25-30 per cent in small watersheds of Hungary.
