<DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;font-size:12pt"><DIV><DIV><P><SPAN>This data layer, the Resources Planning Act (RPA) Water Demand - Change in Water Demand (Withdrawals) by County (%) 2070, RCP8.5-SSP2, examines recent trends in freshwater use and makes projections in future freshwater use over the next 50 years. The RPA water demand model includes modeled historical and projected domestic and public use, industrial and commercial use, thermoelectric, irrigation, livestock, aquaculture, biofuels, and oil shale. Percent change in water demand (water withdrawal) by county was calculated from projected water demand for the year 2070 using combined scenarios RCP8.5-SSP2 relative to a 2020 baseline. Scenario = RCP8.5-SSP2 combination (high warming, moderate growth), mean/min/max of 5 climate models used in RPA Assessment; another three RCP-SSP combinations are available from the information source. This uses the following five climate models: Least Warm-MRI-CGCM3; Hot-HadGEM2-ES; Dry-IPSL-CM5A-MR; Wet-CNRM-CM5; Middle-NorESM1-M (https://www.fs.usda.gov/research/treesearch/60113) For information on RPA models and future scenarios see Langner et al. 2020: https://doi.org/10.2737/RMRS-GTR-412). For water demand methods see: Warziniack et al. 2022 - https://agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1029/2021EF002222; and Heidari 2021 - https://agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1029/2021EF002278. </SPAN></P><P><SPAN /></P><P><SPAN>Spatial Extent: CONUS</SPAN></P><P><SPAN>Units: Millions of gallons per day</SPAN></P></DIV></DIV></DIV> |
