GIS Features Used With Hydrologic Simulations for the Conterminous United States for Historical and Future Conditions Using the National Hydrologic Model Infrastructure (NHM) and the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 5 (CMIP5), 1950 - 2100

Description

The continental United States (CONUS) was modeled to produce simulations of historical and potential future streamflow using the Precipitation-Runoff Modeling System (PRMS) application of the USGS National Hydrologic Model infrastructure (NHM; Regan and others, 2018). This child page specifically contains the spatial model features (hydrologic response units [HRU_subset.zip] and stream segments [Segments_subset.zip]) on which model inputs and outputs are based. The assembly of model-ready files results in HRU and segment IDs that are different than those in the NHM database. Two "crosswalk files" (nhm_hru_id_crosswalk.csv, nhm_segment_id_crosswalk.csv) are provided so that the model inputs and outputs can be mapped to the NHM database IDs in the GIS files.
