Model: | SWAT |
Broad Application Category: | hydrologic only |
Primary Application Category: | climate change |
Secondary Application Category: | Hyrologic Unit Model of the U.S. (HUMUS) application |
Watershed Description: | Missouri & Arkansas-Red-White River Systems, which together drain a large portion of the Great Plains Region in the west central part of the U.S. |
Calibration Summary: | Comparisons of mean annual aggregate water yields between simulated and measured data are provided. |
Validation Summary: | |
General Comments: | SWAT (within HUMUS) was driven with 30 different climate scenarios to assess potential impacts of climate change on Ogalla Aquifer recharge and water yield for the two major basins. Water yield impacts varied between the scenarios; recharge was predicted to decline for all scenarios. |
