| Watershed Description: | 1424 km^2 Sangaman River, located in east central Illinois, U.S. |
| Calibration Summary: | r2 = 0.64 (no mention of time step or time period) |
| Validation Summary: | |
| General Comments: | 5 regulatory scenarios and two climate scenarios (current climate & 25% increase in precipitation) were used to assess impacts on surface water used and streamflows as a function of "riparian doctrine", irrigation use, and other factors. Among other results it was reported that streamflow & agronomic ecosystems could become vulnerable without adquate regulations. |
