This Special Issue comprises 11 papers that outline the advances in research on various aspects of climate change impacts on hydrologic extremes, including both drivers (temperature, precipitation, and snow) and effects (peak flow, low flow, and water temperature). These studies cover a broad range of topics on hydrological extremes, including hydro-climatic controls, trends, homogeneity, nonstationarity, compound events and associated uncertainties, for both historical and future climates.

This book focuses on the up-to-date studies on the sustainability with changing climate and extremes. The main contributors discussed the changing climate and extreme events, as well as their impacts on natural and human dimension sustainability, including the incorporated social–ecologic and socioeconomic processes. Special attention is given to four main sections: natural disasters in agriculture; urban/rural ecosystem, tourism, and ecosystem service; extreme climate indices, and newly created dataset for climate change.
