Input and Output Data Metadata, Step 2: Input and output data for pre-/post-calibration of streamflow for nine near-native subbasins

This dataset contains input parameter and data files, as well as output files for simulations prior to (pre-calibration) and after calibration (post-calibration) of streamflow parameters for nine near-native subbasins. Simulated and observed streamflow for nine near-native subbasins are included for parts of the Upper Rio Grande Basin in Colorado, New Mexico, Texas, and northern Mexico using the Precipitation-Runoff Modeling System (PRMS). Input data include pre-calibration input parameters for the entire Upper Rio Grande Basin. Pre-calibrated parameters used as input to PRMS for step 2 are the post-calibration parameters in Step 1-Solar Radiation and Potential ET calibration. Post-calibration model parameters include parameters after calibration of streamflow in selected nine near-native subbasins. Output files include daily PRMS simulated streamflow (seg_outflow) and observed streamflow at USGS streamgages for each near-native subbasin. These PRMS model input and output data are intended to accompany a U.S. Geological Survey Scientific Investigations Report (Chavarria and others, 2020).
