Abstract

This work reviews and discusses research approaches related to climate change and water resources, an essential area for the conservation of life and the environment. According to the global state of the art, there is an urgent need to expand sectoral statistical analyses of the impacts of climate change on water resources, especially in Brazil. A bibliometric method was applied, adopting a quantitative analytical approach. Active Learning Methodologies were also used, combining Artificial Intelligence for filtering with researcher analysis to assess the impact of studies addressing the interface between climate change and water management on national and international scientific production. The systematic review of the articles reveals a global trend toward recognizing the interaction between climate change and water resources. The studies analyzed indicate that water resource management must evolve toward an adaptive, sustainable, and collaborative approach, integrating quantitative and qualitative data and promoting effective governance.
