Summary

This shapefile represents the spatial distribution of mean annual water-budget components, in inches, for the island of Oahu, Hawaii for a projected future-climate condition representative of phase 5 of the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project (CMIP5) Representative Concentration Pathway 8.5 (RCP8.5) 2041-70 scenario climate and 2010 land cover, as described in USGS Professional Paper (PP) 1876 by Izuka and Rotzoll (2023). The water-budget components for each model subarea were computed for the future-climate condition and 2010 land cover using a water-budget model developed by Engott and others (2017). The 2010 land-cover map developed by Engott (2017) was used to define the land-cover conditions and the model subareas. The future-climate [...]

Purpose

The water-budget components in this shapefile were determined as part of a study to estimate the spatial distribution of groundwater recharge on the island of Oahu, Hawaii, for future-climate conditions and 2010 land cover, as described in USGS PP 1876 by Izuka and Rotzoll (2023). Izuka and Rotzoll (2023) used the recharge estimates in a numerical groundwater-flow model to evaluate the effects of groundwater withdrawals on groundwater levels, streamflow, coastal discharge, and freshwater-lens thickness on Oahu, Hawaii.
