Summary

This data set includes: 1) A shapefile of the Humboldt Bay Eel River (HBER) 13 sub watersheds, 2) A shape file of the streamflow gages used in calibration, and 3) Daily Basin Characterization Model (BCM) model climate inputs (minimum and maximum air temperature, precipitation, and potential evapotranspiration) and outputs of recharge and runoff for the year 2010 used to develop streamflow estimates at 12 gage locations.

Purpose

This data set was created as part of a U.S. Geological Survey study, done in cooperation with the California State Coastal Conservancy to provide estimates of historical and future streamflow and sediment transport to Humboldt Bay from the Eel River. The intended uses of this database include, but are not limited to, natural resource modeling, mapping, and visualization applications.
