"Therefore, the fact that the discharge series of the Rhine and Meuse rivers are close to giving evidence for non-stationarity should serve as a serious warning for the possibility of a systematic increase in river discharges."
Wow, talk about grasping at straws! What the data apparently say is that any systematic increase (or decrease) is negligible compared to the shorter-term "random" variability. Therefore, protection strategies should probably be based on that "random" variability and not on assumed effects of global warming...
