ABSTRACT:

This project leverages existing modeling by the University of Washington Climate Impacts Group (UW CIG) and Western Washington University (WWU) on both the Snohomish and Stillaguamish Rivers, respectively. Specifically, King County funded significant work developing improved estimates of future weather conditions -- using new regional climate model projections -- as well as calibrated fine-scale hydrologic models of the Green and Snohomish River basins.

ABSTRACT:

A collection of DHSVM modeling for the Snohomish basin of various iterations.

ABSTRACT:

This resource contains the work done in modeling future streamflow using DHSVM (Distributed Hydrology Soil Vegatation Model) to estimate changes in future flow for the King County Project.
The model was calibrated to match observations on each river and the calibrated model showed good performance for both monthly and extreme flow statistics.
Changes in streamflow were estimated by using the new regional climate model projections, developed under the parallel King County study, as input to the DHSVM model simulation.
This resource focuses on the files specific to the Snohomish River Basin.

ABSTRACT:

The purpose of this study was to provide projections of future streamflows and water temperatures for use in assessing the impacts of climate change on salmonids in the Chico Creek Watershed. This information is intended to help the Suquamish Tribe prioritize conservation and restoration actions. To do this, we developed a high-resolution, physically-based hydrological and water temperature model for the Chico Creek watershed, and used it to quantify future changes in streamflow and summer water temperature.
