This dataset contains the input files, script, and output files regarding 110 years of daily regulated (observed) and naturalized streamflow (million cubic meters/day) for ten gauge stations in the Rio Grande/Bravo basin. The gauge stations included are at Amistad, Anzalduas, Artesia, Below Presidio, Laredo, Conchos Outlet, Foster Ranch, Laredo, Pecos Outlet, Salado River, and San Juan River.
The Rio Grande/Bravo (RGB) is a basin full of extreme climate conditions. The overall goal of this study was the estimation of climate variability on the southern branch of the RGB basin (from Presidio Texas to the outlet of the river in the Gulf of Mexico) and the characterization of the periods of drought and water abundance for 110 years [1900 – 2010]. This study focused on the natural streamflow variability as a proxy for climate variability, and for extreme drought and flood events. Specifically, on the estimation of daily natural water availability for the RGB along the border, comparing the long-term water availability with drought periods. This research aimed to help in the understanding of extreme climatic...
