The present paper highlights comments on the implications of climate change on water resources. The climatic factors affect the water resources and their relationships are mutually dependent. The observations have revealed that climate change results into significant impact on the water resources all around the world because of the close relations between the climate and hydrologic cycle. The changes in precipitation and drought pattern occur due to Latitudinal variations such as the decrease in precipitation between 100 S and 300 N. Subtropical regions are more stressed on water resources but tropics and high latitudes are expected to experience increasing amount of precipitation. Due to this, number of problems have arisen on high latitudes, such as flooding, rate of erosion, mass movement of land and soil moisture availability. The rainfall is one of the most important factors of climate that governs the excess or deficiency of water resources. The rainfall is the only source of water recharge and the excess or scarcity of rainfall both cause adverse and beneficial implications on the water resources. Another climatic factor is temperature, which affects the evapotranspiration. It is the priority need of the day to combat with the implications of climate change by the implementation of a scheme for the a forestation, construction of artificial recharge structures and proper management of water resources by avoiding the wastage of water. A strategy has been suggested for the mitigation of the implications generated by the climate changes on water resources.
