Bai et al. ([3]) in their article «Impact of climate change on water transfer scale of inter-basin water diversion project» present a systematic approach for runoff prediction, impact analysis, and risk assessment under climate change. Elnashar and Elyamany ([8], [9]) in the paper «Managing Risks of Climate Change on Irrigation Water in Arid Regions», propose a systematic approach to identify, analyse, and respond to the risks of climate change on irrigation water in arid regions using a Risk Management process. In the paper «Complex policy mixes are needed to cope with agricultural water demands under climate change» by Martinez-Valderrama et al. ([23]) the authors argue that the forecast of the water gap (difference between agricultural water use and annual supply of water resources) will continue to widen, affecting the water security of a large part of the world's population. Elnashar and Elyamany ([8], [9]) in the paper «Adapting Irrigation Strategies to Mitigate Climate Change Impacts: A Value Engineering Approach» accept the fact that climate change will increase water demand and decrease crop yields.
