Percent Change in Exposure Indicators at HUC-8 scale from US FWS Region 3 Climate Change Vulnerability Assessment Map

Description

This dataset contains the percent change in means (over 20-year periods) of annual climate change metrics calculated from the climate change inputs and the hydrology outputs from the HAWQS/SWAT model. The metrics are fifteen climate change indicators evenly divided into three categories: temperature, precipitation, and hydrology that were selected by resource managers working in Region 3 of the United States Fish and Wildlife Service. The projected percent change in each of these indicators from the baseline period (1986-2005) to the future period (2040-2059) in provided at the HUC-8 scale for USFWS Region 3 (Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Ohio, and Wisconsin).These indicators were used to construct the potential impact component of the vulnerability assessment.
