Short summary
A simple hydrologic modeling-based approach to segregate the impacts of land use (LU) and climate change on streamflow is presented. Upper part of Ganga River basin in India is selected as study area for investigation. Results suggest that climate is the dominant contributor to the changes observed in the simulated streamflow. LU did not contribute significantly to the simulated streamflow which could be attributed to smaller spatial extent of sensitive LU categories in the study region.
