Summary

This dataset provides monthly and average annual long-term estimates (water years 1981-2010) of gridded recharge and runoff from water years 1896-2018 for the Anza-Cahuilla Groundwater Basin in southern California. Gridded data are available in flat ASCII files (*.asc) in the NAD83 California Teale Albers projection. This dataset also includes streamflow calibration basins and stations as shape files (*.shp), and a Basin Characterization Model (BCMv8) model archive.

Purpose

The Basin Characterization Model was developed to produce recharge estimates in a data scarce area. These are natural estimates of the water balance components and do not reflect anthropogenic factors like irrigation, diversions, and other water management decisions.
