title: MODFLOW-2005 and SWI2 models for assessing groundwater availability in the volcanic aquifers of Kauai, Oahu, and Maui, Hawaii

description: Steady-state numerical groundwater-flow models were constructed for the islands of Kaua'i, O'ahu, and Maui, Hawai'i. Separate models were created for each island using MODFLOW-2005 (Harbaugh, 2005) with the Seawater Intrusion (SWI2) package (Bakker and others, 2013), which allows simulation of freshwater and saltwater in ocean-island aquifers. The purpose of the models is to enable quantification of the hydrologic effects of withdrawals and changes in climate. These effects include water-table depression, saltwater rise, and reduction of natural groundwater discharge to streams, springs, and the ocean. The effects can place limits on groundwater availability. This USGS data release contains all of the input and output files for the simulations described in the associated model documentation report (https://doi.org/10.3133/sir20205126).

title: Streamflow projections for southwestern United States (1975-2099)

description: We projected future streamflow outcomes arising from climate change for the southwestern United States during the 21st century due to climate change under two possible greenhouse gas concentration pathways (RCP4.5 and 8.5). The results inform water managers about the future risks of drought in their water resource regions by providing bounds on the possible locations and extents of streamflow loss. To get to these results, we used downscaled future and historic climate data from seven models to drive a new, calibrated SPAtially Referenced Regression On Watershed attributes (SPARROW) streamflow model (Wise and others, 2019, Miller and others, 2020). Temperature and precipitation data come from the NASA Earth Exchange (NEX) Downscaled Climate Projections (NEX-DCP30, Thrasher and others, 2013 and Thrasher and others, 2015), and actual and potential evapotranspiration come from the NEX-DCP30 temperature and precipitation used in the Monthly Water Balance Model (MWBM, Hostetler and Alder, 2016 and Alder, 2017a,b,c). This data set comprises climate data preprocessing code to convert the gridded, monthly-scale climate data to reach scale multidecadal averages for the intervals 1975-2005, 2020-2049, 2040-2069 and 2070-2099, the model input (data1) and model control files, the model code, model results files, and code to post-process and analyze the streamflow model results. The raw climate data (NEX-DCP30, MWBM), and SPARROW model calibration documentation are publicly available elsewhere and are cross linked with this data release (see crossref section). The full data preparation, modeling, and analysis methods, as well as results are described in Miller and others, (2021).
