| description:
|
The flow regime is of fundamental importance in determining the physical and ecological characteristics of a river or stream, but actual flow measurements are only available for a small minority of stream segments, mostly on large rivers. Flows for all other streams must be extrapolated or modeled. Modeling is also necessary to estimate flow regimes under future climate conditions. Climate data such as this dataset is valuable for planning and monitoring purposes. Business use cases include: climate change and water rights assessments; analysis of water availability, runoff, groundwater, and impacts to aquatic organisms; resource management; post fire recovery; restoration activities, etc. |
