Indicators of thermal alteration in US waters reveal patterns of climate risk at the energy-water nexus

Anthropogenic changes in water temperature can pose significant risk to thermoelectric and hydroelectric generation. In this study, we developed indicators of thermal risk (ITRs) to assess risk to water-dependent electricity generating assets under future climate. We projected future changes in wate...
